Gabe, We did this a few months ago.
Some things that helped us: Make sure your paths are the same on both machines, this will save you some headaches. We found it simpler to copy the accounts to a temporary location on the new server and then copy the account to its permanent location. This helped us set up the inherited file and share permissions correctly as noted below. Then use UniAdmin to create the accounts on the new server. The old DOS xcopy command works great to copy the account directories. One very important thing to pay very close attention to: File and Directory NTFS and Share permissions. Make sure that the permissions on the new server exactly match the permissions on the old server. That one bit us in the you know what!
