Hello,
I want to use a fresh FreeNAS instance to replace an old long overdue windows 2003 server still providing a domain and some file services to its clients, optimally migrating the domain to FreeNAS with no work on clients required. Is this possible?
I was thinking somewhere along those steps
Any pointers? Thx in advance.

I was thinking somewhere along those steps
- make FreeNAS a member server of existing w2k3 domain
- make FreeNAS provide shares for netlogon and user homes same as the old server does
- FreeNAS takes over FSMO roles from windows server
- take windows server offline
Any pointers? Thx in advance.
