Hi, One of my satellite offices has been working with a server 2008 file server as a workgroup. The administrator has created local accounts on the server for all of the users.
We are about to embark on moving the fileserver to the domain, and then the user workstations. Is it possible to join the fileserver to the domain, and then create user accounts, apply appropriate ACLs, then move the workstations over to the domain over a period of a week or two, and still allow workgroup users to access files, or will access to files be granted only to domain users?
If anyone can point me to some best practices for workgroup>domain migration, I'd love to do some reading.
Thanks,
Kevin
