domain controller. I now wish to promote the target domain controller to
Why do you need to have the domain controller using the same name as before?
I wouldn't do this at all. Bring up a new DC, and point whatever you need
to (via logon scripts or group policy) to the new name.
Much cleaner...
If you insist on ending up with the same DC names, then build a temp
Thanks for your advice. Then if I go ahead by demoting the old domain
controller, switch it off and have only the new domain controller up and
running then users should be able to log in as per usual without any issues.
The swing migration has migrated across everything including OUs, Machine

You should really read about this before you do it. Just google DCpromo
and you'll find plenty of information so you understand what you are doing.

You will have to give it time and you will need to move the FSMO roles to

Hello all
I am currently working on the migration project of our Windows Server 2003
domain to a Windows R2 2008 domain. Our single domain is small with about
160 user acounts.
I've tried doing a swing migration but somehow could not get the DNS
server to work on the R2 server. I am currently
What was the problem you had with DNS?
If the domain was well maintained, and there are no other reasons for
building a new domain, I would be *much* more inclined to bring up new 2008
servers in the existing domain, and then decommission the older DC
infrastructure.

objects, only 150 or so users and a few dozen groups...but shouldn't make
