Win2000 AD migration to Win2003 AD

[Guest]

Hi all,
Can anyone point me to a good guide for upgrading a Win2000 AD setup to
Win2003? We have a two AD controller setup and I am wondering if it would be
better to have a new server running Win2003 and promote it to be a DC or
upgrade an existing Win2k DC server to Win2003, assuming the Win2k-Win2003
upgrade process will do the required magic to update the AD schemas.

Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Craig did anyone reply to your post about the above
subject? I too am in the process of planning a W2K3
migration and have the same question. I have 2 W2K DC's
and we are replacing the hardware and would like to move
to W2K3 on the new servers but I am unsure as to the best
process for this migration. If you have an answer could
you please share it with me?

Thanks,
