I believe Curtis has cleared this up. It is not "the configurations"
but the per-user data that FastWiz could help you with.
You could also look into the info Torgeir has posted in
news:3FBE9201.733F6E3D@hydro.com
thread subj: moving local user settings to domain use
this newsgroup, thread date: Nov 20
for other alternatives for shortcuts to help preserve the old
per-user account data/profiles.
As far as domain structure, as was said, you must rebuild
from the ground up.
