I've just inherited IT management of a group in a university that is being spun out as a standalone entity. We'll be taking our several servers (2008&2003R2) and the computers in the OU with us. No server that is relocating with us is currently a Domain Controller. no branch office/trust will remain. Server roles are 4xFile and Print, 1xApplication/IIS and 1xSQL. The IIS based apps and DBs the org uses are currently counting on the OU in the university domain for permissions/security.
What path can get us the closest to leaving the university and setting up a new domain without having to recreate all the settings?
Thoughts, links and further questions to answer appreciated. As I said I inherited the current setup, which is pitifullly documented. University ITS is not offering much in the way of help. Growing Pains. Many thanks.
