Link current WSS installation to a new Active Directory
I am faced with a problem of having to link a current setup of WSS 3.0 (SharePoint) to a newly built Active Directory and do not want to have to re-link all my users back into People and Groups on the SharePoint installation.
I have the following setup:
Server 1 - SBS2003 Server running Active Directory and Exchange Server 2 - SQL Server running SQL server 2005 Server 3 - WSS 3 / SharePoint Web Front End ServerI need to replace Server 1 and it will be replaced with an SBS2008 (64-bit) server to run Active Directory and Exchange (This will be, for example, Server 4).
My setup of SharePoint (which is across server 2 and server 3) will need to use the new Active Directory on the new Server 4.
Is there a way I can link my current WSS 3.0 setup to the new (rebuilt) Active Directory without having to remove and re-add all my users into People and Groups in SharePoint and therefore saving me from having to update all my people fields within my开发者_JAVA技巧 site with new ones so my dynamic list filters (using the '[Me]' function) will work properly?
I hope this makes sense and any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Try this command:
