Hello:

I am begaining the process of upgrading my domain from 2000 to 2008. I
extended my schema to 2003 so not sure how that plays in the upgrade road
map. Does anyone know of any good articles which explains the
upgrade/migration path to take. I assume the best way to do it would be to
bring a new 2008 domain online and create a trust between them. Then
migrate users, computer, servers, etc... over.

Any advice would be helpful.
