Move SBS 2003 standard AD, sharepoint, Exchange onto different Ser

This is one big complicated project. We plan to build more than one DC and
cluster Exchange as we moving forward. Now, our first step is to take SBS
apart onto different servers. AD goes to one server DC, exchange goes to
another member server, and sharepoint goes to SQL server. Then we'll
decommission the SBS.

Please advice how to move or migrate them properly so we don't loss any
data. Exchange is the most important that we don't want to loss.

Basically, we want to shutdown the SBS and keep everything function as normal.
Exchange, AD, dns, IIS, sharepoint, ... all that's all in one SBS.

PS. is it possible to keep the same DC name?


Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is called transition pack, since you are moving or want to move to a
"regular" windows domain, or do you?
Post in the SBS group, as advised in the previous reply.
