Just install the two new server. And rin DCPROMO.EXE 
And make them domain controllers.

Then you have to move the FSMO roles and the GC from the old one, over to the 
two new ones. Once all roles are moved. You run DCPROMO on the old server, to 
remove AD from it. After that, you can remove it from AD and scrap it.

DHCP and DNS must also be moved, but that is not completely the same as AD. You 
should do that first.

Hello all,

I need some advice... What is the best way to cut-over to a new active
directory server?

Here's the situation:  Currently, we have 1 Win2K AD server that handles
user authentication, domain security, DNS, DHCP, and probably some other
things I'm forgetting.  I just got 2 new servers (win 2K) that are going to
replace the current server.

I do have plenty of down time to work on this when users aren't on the
network over weekends and evenings.

How about Microsoft's Active Directory Migration Tool... Will this help me
out?

Thanks in advance!
