Just out of curiosity, why do they think they want their own forest? In any case, there's no way that I'm aware of to carve off a domain and make it a new forest root... I think you'll have to create the forest and migrate the users and resources.
ADMT would seem to be a reasonable way to go. Or one of the commercial migration products. -g -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Larry Wahlers Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2006 11:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] Migrate domain to separate forest Hello, colleagues, One of our organizations is in their own domain, a child domain of our root. They want to be in their own forest. Are there tools to migrate them to their own separate forest, or will I need to build the forest first, presumably with 2 new DC's, and then make all their servers join the new forest? And, of course, they have about 140 users.
