Doesnt the Quest migration tool now claim to be able to migrate without any trusts? It's been a little while since I looked into any migration tools though so maybe my memory is slipping.

Moveuser.exe is the tool that I would typically use for this to do it in a batch fashion. Just not sure if the lack of trust will be an issue, but probably worth a try. Its in the Reskit tools.Darren

Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Profile migration to new domain
Suggestions? More like a shot in the dark. :)Have you seen the transfer your settings wizard in XP? Have you checked to see what that can do for you? I suspect there will be some scripting involved, because there will be no automated way to determine the source/target profiles programatically. You could migrate their settings etc, but there's no sid/sidhistory to reference. Not much point in getting that information either. There's also the permissions issues etc.Was it me, I'd suggest taking this opportunity to re-image the workstations in question. Cleaner, neater, more secure, and no lingering issues to deal with.Al

The environment I'm in has multiple domains and I've been given a task
to move about 40 users from one domain to another. There's no trust
between the source domain and mine and no plans to have one. Too much
red tape. My dilemma is trying to preserve the user's desktop profiles
when they come over to my domain. In the past there's been a trust
between any domain migrations I've performed which provides a host of
avenues but with no trust I'm not sure of a way to do it other than some
manual moves and permission/registry tweaks. However, doing that for 40
users with a manual process is not my idea of fun. Saving their email is
covered so it's not an issue. Any ideas or methods would be welcomed.
Many thanks
