Thanks, but perhaps my original wording was vague or misleading. I'm
not moving from one SBS box to another. (However, KB 884453 _is_ handy
to know. Many thanks for that!) I converted an SBS box to Standard.
That seemed to go okay.
The problems began after demoting the SBS-turned-ServerStandard box.
Some workstations seem to have cached
OLDSERVER\username + password
for authentication credentials. Specifying proper domain credentials
is easy enough (albeit annoying) for shares... but not so great when
logging off and a profile doesn't sync. (I've not tried accessing the
profiles share directly, thus forcing a credentials request, before
logging off.)
I'm trying to ascertain why workstations are "getting goofy" about
credentials... and why it coincides with the formerly-SBS server's
demotion.
