      New AD/DC built. Took 3.5 hours to write owner permissions to the NAS. Today I tackle adding the rest of 200+ computers to the network, and if I get time... start rebuilding Group Policy.

        are you using any migration path for the users' old profiles?

          Profile Wizard works pretty well for moving a Windows user from one domain to another.

            We used that to migrate the users from 3 domains into 1.. probably close to 500 staff...

              @Dashrender I just sign them in, open two finder windows (one with their old, one with their new) and drag and drop. It's the same domain, but we dropped the old AD/DC into oblivion.

                              @Dashrender I can see how that was confusing. It's an entirely new domain. I meant we just reused the previous domain name again, and there were not, at any time, two separate domains in operation.

                                I do disagree with this statement at least in ____ (fill in the blank, I don't have the right word this moment). If this is a new domain, then it is completely separate - true, you possibly/likely didn't have them up at the same time (that would be difficult at best if they were on the same LAN because you'd have a name conflict).

                                When you add these computers to the new domain (because it is a completely brand new domain) the users will get a brand new profile. Sure you can copy over things from their old profile - but any personalized setting they had will be lost.

                                  Just getting back into the office after an Install all day up to this point.
                                  exhausted, frustrated and ready to end the night.

                                      Read this quickly and thought you said 'new AC/DC built' .....

                                          working at a small rural school today. Been told it hit 46c or 115F yesterday AND NO AC for the servers, switches etc!

                                          stick that in your pipe and smoke it!
