Hello Kathy,

See inline. I would use the 3.1 version if, ofcourse you need a 2008 server
to run it.

You need 3.1 if you have a 2008 Domain to migrate to,becasue 3.1 run only
on 2008.

Thanks Meinolf. Thats a lot of info...

was a lil confused

I have indeed started reviewing the tool and, i am already confused about
the Security Translation. When you are
migrating a workstation, the security translation is automatically done
based on the Objects Selected for Translation and Security Translation
Options selected and the in the computer migration wizard. My understanding
is that during this phenomenon, the ACL on the objects selected (files &
folders, local groups, printers, shares, user profiles, user rights) will be
updated with the corresponding target domain security principal. Is that
correct? Now this is the same procedure followed for servers also?

In that case why do we need a seperate Security Translation Wizard? Is it
for a cleanup process? I mean removing the the old security identifiers from
the ACL?
