    Hello all -

    please guide me to appropriate NG, if this post is off-topic.

    I am currently researching the steps to get my Windows 2000 AD CA migrated
    to a 2003 box. I have backed up all existing logs/db/regkeys necessary
    based on following KB:

    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298138

    Note the last line in this KB though.... 'Also, the new server must have the
    same name as the outdated server ....'

    I called MS for a little clarification, but they mosdef wanted their 245$
    for an answer. Does this statement mean that the 'hostname' must be the
    same for the destination server (if so, how am i supposed to have two boxes
    on same domain with same name), or does this statement mean that the actual
    Certificate Authority name (IE - Organization X CA 1) must be identical?

    Thanks in advance for a little clarity, or atleast a redirect to the
    appropriate group.

    Regards,

    Jay Crump
