Thank you for the reply. I was NOT aware of any agent that needs to be installed on the workstations. I would appreciate more info on this or if you can direct me to where I can obtain more info regarding this agent to be installed if possible. Getting back to the domain naming, basically we are not looking to change or create a NEW domain name to our existing network. Our goal is to migrate users, computers etc. to the new server that has Windows Server 2003 pre installed from the factory. The server does need to be set up as any computer out of the box with an OS on it. Of course, Active Directory needs to be deployed with a domain name. The question is, what domain name do I use? Can I use my existing domain name for example, DOMAIN-A or do I have to create a new domain entirely? Will ADMT migrate the domain name also?

We are in the process of migrating a PDC NT4 Server with SP6 to a new server with Server 2003 using ADMT v2. The new server (target) has not been setup yet. We are hoping to be able to use the same domain name as with our NT4 network. We have over 400 workstations on this network and obviously we want to make sure they will all continue to log into the new Server 2003 environment once we do the migration. We are OK with the other aspects of ADMT as of right now but our one stumbling block is with the domain naming. Is there a way that we can perform this migration with ADMT v2 using the same domain name? Thank you for your reply.
