You can automate newsid with command line switches as well,
and it changes the computername in the same process as well - fairly easy - I
use that since I've been doing differencing discs with VMWare 3.x, then 4.x and
afterwards VPC and VS (now testing VMWare 5.1 which has some very interesti

you try the vmware-mount.exe command yet? Now that, I love! As for
the rest of this release of 5, let's just say it's quite definitely a
beta.

Hi Dean,
no - I did not test the mount yet - but I'm sure I'll love
it. I tested the V2V and was very happily doing a delta of a VPC on VMWare -
Cool. This and the snapshot-manager as well as the mount utility is something
which is really missing in the MS Products (hopefully

There are many ways to go about this, but
here is one I might suggest:
Configure
2 physical servers with enough memory and processors to effectively host
all of the VMs that you want with 2 physical NICs in each machine.
Attach
one NIC from each machine to the producti
joining the host to a domain is actually a good idea,
especially if you want to delegate the mgmt of the hosts and VMs to different
people. This can be useful to differentiate who has administrative access on the
host and who administers or operates the VMs. You can also do so with local

I'd have to agree with Dean's thought on this - why would you not want to have
the choice to integrate secondaries? Using App-Partitions you could control
"bloating" of AD as well and mgmt would obviously be much improved.
Take the _msdcs zone as an example - I like the idea of forest-wide zon
you can also consider using DFS consolidation roots for an
interims time during the file-migration (see Q829885 - Distributed File System
update to support consolidation roots in Windows: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=829885).
This will leverage the OptionalNames regkey (a little more rest
