When we have inplaced upgraded SBS 2000's to SBS 2003's they leave behind a mixmass of permissions.... i.e. a blend of 2000 and 2003. Many in our gang really do not like inplaces at all. You don't get a comparable box to a clean 2003.

You want nice, clean 2003 permission structure? You'll want to swing over those roles.

My personal opinion is that you carry less crap over if you bring up a new 2k3 DC (even if only temporarily). You can always reformat and reuse the original server then move it back if you need to.

*Subject:* [ActiveDir] AD Migration Question

I have a W2K AD that I want to migrate to W2K3 AD. What’s the best option: In-place upgrade of the W2K DC or standing up a brand new W2K3 DC server

And then upgrade the W2K DC to W2K3?

By the way the W2K DC is also running DNS, DHCP, & WINS. I have one more DNS server. If I go the second route do I need to set up a DNS server or can I use the existing ones?

Thanks
