Hi Zentyal Forum

I run a small network using an elderly win2k3 SBS server, which serves as domain controller to about 10 windows PCs.  Obviously the server is old and I wanted to decomission it so I looked into using Zentyal as an alternative.

I setup a Zentyal box as an ADC and successfully got the replication of computers, users and groups from the PDC.  Next step was a total migration using the script mentioned in:

https://wiki.zentyal.org/wiki/En/4.1/Users,_Computers_and_File_Sharing#total-migration

The migration script ran successfully but I feel like I'm missing the last steps.

I'm left with Zentyal as a ADC in the Domain settings but when I change it to a PDC, all my user accounts and computers have disappeared.   ???

Am I missing an extra step?  I was assuming that a migration would actually retain the accounts so the domain users would have a transparent migration process.

Any insight would be most appreciated.

Cheers
Steve
