Upgrade severs to 2003 R2, using FSRM (File Server Resource Manager) create DFS (Distributed File System) name for \\domain\home to point to the existing \\server1\home. Use FRS (File Replication Service) to replicate all data keeping all existing file ownership and security, then change the login script to \\domain\home\%username% then once all data is replicated to both servers add \\server2\home to the DFS as another namespace; then kill the \\home\server1 namespace at your leisure and lastly, kill the FRS before you kill the server1.
I've been using DFS and FRS for years and it's been a wonderful way to standardize the login scripts, while providing server redundancy. I've yet to have a problem with it! *** READ THE WHITE PAPERS!
