Hello Juraj,

ADMT can NOT be used in your case as SBS versions are NOT able to create
a trust.

Additional you can NOT create a trust on the normal server editions, if the
domain names exactly the same as in your case 2 times "langportsgc.local"
and "langportsgc.local".

So in your case you can takeover the domain with the less users to the SBS
domain with joining the computers to the SBS domain and creating all users
accounts NEW. This will result in new created profiles on the user workstations
even if you use the same names for the user accounts. It will then look like
C:\documents and settings\user1 and C:\documents and settings\user1.newdomain.
A local administrator can access the old profile and copy the needed data
to the new created profile.

The domains are not the same, the other one has gc suffix.
langports.local and langportsgc.local.

But why do I need to create trust? I thought I can take users from
site2 via ADMT and then put them into site1 domain. done.

Ain't that easy, right?

Hello Juraj,

I understand but the other postings shown only the langportsgc.local.

Anyway still the trust problem will exist. If you follow the ADMT documentation
you will see that there are a lot steps involved where you have to take care
about. And one requirement is a working trust between the source and the
target domain.

Unfortunal Domain migration isn't that easy like copying files between servers.
I suggest to add the workstations to the domain and create the 10 user accounts
new. BTW, 50 workstations and 10 users?

What you can check out is to use ldifde to export the AD data from the NOT
SBS domain to import but NOT ALL attributes will be ex/imported that way
und you have to do some manual work.

See the following link AND TEST IT BEFORE:
