Transfer Domain Controller (SBS 2003)
-
I have a system running SBS 2003 R2, I will be having some much better hardware (3Ghz HT P4 with raid vs 1.3 Ghz TBird barebones) available soon. The TBird system is old, not very fast, and not always reliable. How would I go about transfering control of my domain to the new system?

What do you mean by transfering the control? What kind of function that you want to transfer?
I am running SBS (full Active Directory/Exchange etc) on Computer A, Computer A is old and sucks. Computer B is new(er) and doesn't suck. I want to make Computer B my SBS server and get rid of Computer A, but I don't want to loose all my Active Directy logins/config/etc or my mail/calander/etc in exchange. Hopefully that makes sense.
