How to transfer AD between domains...

I have a box running Windows Server 2000 that is part of an old domain setup.
I would need to transfer all the user accounts in the AD to the new Windows
2003 Server setup in a different domain.

How do I accomplish that?

Thanks,

/Adde

Hello Adde,

You can use Active Directory migration tool V3.

ADMT, or

Just run adprep /forestprep and adprep /domainprep (from the 2003 CD) to
update your AD Schema on the 2K box, then join the 2K3 server to the
domain and promote it to a DC. After you've verified that AD has
replicated to the new server, transfer the FSMO roles. Take the old one
off line for a bit to make sure everything's hunky-dory, then bring it
back up and demote it (or leave it as a second).
