We just set up a brand new Windows Server 2003 domain. I must move 30
workstations and 30 user profiles into this new domain from our existing
Windows NT 4.0 domain. Is there a way to automate this process, or at least a
way to make it so that I don't have to move the workstations/user profiles
manually? Thanks in advance.

Thanks. Will this work even though one of the servers is not running AD?

Thanks again. This looks to be exactly what I need.

One question: When the tool translates the users' roaming profiles, where
does it put them when it's done? I can't find them on the target server.

Okay, but where does it put them when it's done? The log says that it
translated "\\fs1\profiles$\mbenton" in my test case, which is the location
of the profile. But when it transfers it, where does it go? Or does it just
stay on the source server?
