Subject: Re: My SBS swing brag
I just did one but just used the MS docs. I didn't actually go
all the way with it. Got most everything migrated then broke the
sbcore.exe service on the SBS2003 machine so I could leave the old
machine up and not move all the printers, scan to SMB folders, and
antivirus software.
The machine was still good for those light duty activities and it
simplified everything and saved the client some money.
