Does anyone know of a utility to copy or migrate user profiles, group profiles & etc from an NT server to a separate Win 2K server? On the same thought, is there any suggested reading, checklists or how to's on the subject? Have an old klunker NT server, it is the PDC, file & print server too for 95, 98, 2k, XP & Macs. Putting in a new W2K server to replace it. Looking for ideas on an orderly way to bring it into service.

The MCSE Training Kit "Upgrading to Microsoft Windows 2000" contains a good bit of info on planning the migration, and a practice exercise on upgrading a WinNT4 PDC to Win2K. It does not, however, cover preserving profiles and such from the original PDC. There are a few whitepapers on the subject at Technet - I think you'll find them worthwhile reading.
