Can someone help me to share the procedures/guide to migrate IIS 6.0 server to another forest?
Two way Forest trusts established between the forests. Domain & Forest Functional level set as Windows server 2003 at both the forest

Hi,
Have you tried using the Active Directory Migration Tool to move the
file server accounts to the new forest? Here is a link to s a little bit
of background info:

and a link to ADMT 3.2:

One special caveat with moving applications integrated with active
directory is that these applications may need to be reconfigured to the
new forest/domain and any directory-dependent paths that are hard-coded
in the application may require the application to need to be recompiled.
It is likely that the developers for the applications in your
organization will need to be involved to determine if anything that is
dependent on the directory needs to be recompiled or reconfigured.

Hi,
Thank you for your post here.
What exactly do you want to migrate on the IIS 6.0 server? Do you want to move the existing IIS 6.0 sites to a new server in the external forest? Or
do you need to migrate the user account in the current forest to the external forest?
To move Web sites or applications to a new IIS 6.0 server, please refer to:
