ADUC or DHCP?
As far as the printers go, you can use Microsoft's Print Migrator to copy off the printer configuration, load it up on a test machine and make your ip address changes there. Once that's done, you should be able to take that configuration and restore it to the production machine, and have all the same printers with new addresses. ________________________________ From: Martinson, Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2008 3:32 PM To: Active Directory Admin Issues Subject: Campus IP address change We need to change our IP campus to a completely new range. My part of the migration is mainly reservations for servers and printers. Looking for any type of shortcuts / prework that can be done. First: Printers and Servers: I can export from ADUC MAC addresses with IP reservation. Once exported (aka - a csv file and use excel) is there a way of replacing IP addresses and importing back into AD to create the new reservations. Second: Printers only: We have a couple of print servers - some repeat the printers due to the application running on them. Printer names stay the same, IP changes. Any shortcuts here??? Thought: Can the registry be edited to modify IP address (IP_Name) or do they all need to be recreated, correct print driver, etc.... Thanks in advance for any help / tips / watch outs / links.
