moving local profiles, imap mail, Oultook data into AD/Excha |
|
|
I need step-by-step advice on moving a group of XP users into a new
Active Directory domain, and importing their Outlook data + IMAP mail
from a BSD server to Exchange 2003.
I've built an AD domain; added user accounts and configured mail
routing between Exchange, Postfix+Courier, and the outside world; and
built nicely workind DNS zones, VPN access, etc.
Next I need to:
1 - move each Windows Box into AD, (okay, this one is easy)
2 - move their login profile into AD, so that their Desktop +
application-data is preserved,
3 - import Outlook data (calendar, contacts, etc., and local mail)
into Exchange,
4 - move their IMAP-based mail stores into Exchange.
I've mucked with moving local profiles into AD in the past, and it
usually soon becomes adhoc, where everybody has some unique thing that
messes the profile process up at some different point. I guess it's
the "do this before that" issue that trips me up. I also don't know of
any sure-fire way to get all Outlook local mail and data in to Exch.
After researching for weeks I'm swimming in snippits -- Can anyone
please point me to some rock-solid howto's?
Thanks!

Hi,
I think you need to use some third-party applications to accomplish your
purpose.
You may have a look at this:
Member Server Migrator (MSVR-Migrator)

Hope it helps.
