Clean and Pristine AD Migration with same top level domain, possible?

We had planned on doing a C&P migration of a domain with the initial assumption that the TLD was .local.
Turns out it is .com, is it still possible to do C&P?
TLD is company.com, no sub domain.
We want xxxxxxx.company.com as the AD sub domain.  From everything I read C&P requires a different TLD or can it work so long as we use a sub domain?  Eventually the old server will go away.
Going from 2003 64 Bit to 2012 R2 as far as schema.

Yes you can.
But
If you have xyz.com now and you want sub.xyz.com and you create this as a child domain then the old xyz.com will always be around.  You can create sub.xyz.com as a different forest and migrate off of xyz.com if you want.
If you're going from 2003 to 2012 you'll need to wait for the newest version of ADMT to be released.  Right now 3.2 does not support 2012.  You can create the new domain as 2008 R2 and then raise it to 2012 after your migration if you need to start
soonest.

  • Realms with different top-level domain

    I'm testing OCS 10.1.2 and I am interested in setting up multiple realms.
    Must all realms be in the same top-level domain? I see in the examples (like in Note Note:317434.1) names like this:
    - Default realm created at install:
    dc=us,dc=oracle,dc=com
    - Additional realms created by the administrator post-install:
    dc=uk,dc=oracle,dc=com
    dc=ca,dc=oracle,dc=com
    A more typical example for what we need would be:
    dc=company,dc=co,dc=uk
    dc=company,dc=no
    dc=company,dc=de
    Is this possible?

    What are the consequence of that? Any practical problems?
    I see in Note 308682.1 that the top level of a top level domain is NULL. So maybe instead of world you can use an empty top level domain.
    However, this document refers to mail and not OID.

  • Email address with new top level domain (TLD)

    Hi all,
    Apple does not recognise the new top level domains. My company has a new domain e.g. aaa.systems and os x says that the email [email protected] is not valid!
    Please help.

    This will work partly. But the mail address will still be [email protected] and gives an issue with the outgoing mail server.

  • Powershell Script to Remove and Add the user with same permission

    Hi,
    I need to remove all users within all site collection of a web application and add them back with same permission level. We have a siteminder based custom trusted identity token issuer configured in our farm. The name of the issuer will be changed
    due to some architectural decissions , hence all users which are there before will be unidentified, hence need to be removed and added again.
    Currently each user looks like :                       c:0ǹ.t|Identity Token Issuer1|user1
    Post the change the user will look like:          c:0ǹ.t|Identity Token Issuer New|user1
    I am looking for a powershell script which can handle this operation.

  • IMessage and new Top level domains

    My new email address has a new top-level domain (.kiwi instead of .nz) - I am trying to get iMessage to allow the use of that address, but the verification email never arrives.  Anyone know a way to convince Apple that my new email address is legitimate and can be used for iMessage and FaceTime?

    Hello The-Organist,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning Apple ID issues:
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5622
    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • How to stop location bar autocomplete from using top-level domains?

    I love the location bar autocomplete - or at least, I used to. I had it trained to the point where typing one letter was enough to bring up the pages I used most often. But now with Firefox 12, it ignores all that and favors top-level domains.
    For instance: I haven't been to the front page of YouTube in years; there's no reason to go there. When I would type "www.y" into the location bar, it would pop up to the one video I visited most often - and that's exactly what I WANTED it to do. Now it defaults to "YouTube.com" and I have to scroll down to find the actual page I want. Same deal with Wikipedia: I don't want to go to the front page, I want to go to the page I use most often for research.
    So basically, what do I need to change to get the location bar autocomplete to stop giving me top-level domains I don't want, and go back to giving me the subpages I spent years training it to favor? Scrolling down to the right entry is a waste of time when typing one letter and hitting enter should be enough to do it...

    And I meant the actual location bar, not the dropdown menu below it. The dropdown is fine: it's the autocomplete '''in''' the location bar that needs to be fixed...

  • Block Top Level Domain (.eu)

    I'm trying to configure a transport rule in Exchange 2013 to block all emails from the TLD .eu   We get nothing but a TON of spam that is not caught by the Exchange 2013 spam filter, and it's always from a different domain. I have seen guides for
    2007 and 2010, but nothing for 2013.
    Do I just use the rule "The sender domain is" and use the value ".eu"? I just want to verify this is the correct way to block a TLD.

    Hi Jsilveri,
    You can use Sender Filtering feature:
    Set-SenderFilterConfig –BlockedDomains

    That is the same answer as before. The domain changes with each spam message. I need to block anything coming from a .EU top level domain. So domain1.eu , domain2.eu should all be blocked with 1 rule.

  • How to block top-level domain names in rules for EOP?

    Using EOP for email filtering to/from our on-premise Exchange server.  How do I block entire top-level domains in the rules section under mail flow?  For example, w need everything ending with .link blocked.  Right now I
    have only been able to block email addresses and full domain names.  I know I can setup a transport rule in our exchange, but I'd prefer EOP handle this before like it should. Thanks in advance.

  • Naming your top level domain

    I am setting up a new directory server for our organization, we'll call it direct.org.
    I would like to know how you determine which way to name your top level domain.
    o=direct
    o=direct.org
    dc=direct,dc=org
    Most of the organizations around us use the "o=xxxx.org" or "o=xxxx.edu" so I set up our test server as o=direct.org. Before I put this thing into production I wanted to find out what factors are used to determine how you define the top level domain.
    We are, in a sense, an ISP. However, our only clients are educational institutions.
    I took Sun's Directory Server class last year and I asked this question in class. It seems that nobody could come up with a clear answer to this question.

    For LDAP V2 - use o=direct.org
    for LDAP V3 - use dc=direct,dc=org

  • DNS Server does not resolve new generic Top Level Domain names- CNR configuration issue?

    Hi all,
    I am not sure if this is the correct community to post this question, but I will give it a try. I noticed that the users of my network cannot resolve web sites using new top level domain names, like ".education", ".international", etc. I have an internal DNS server made by Infoblox and a Cisco CNR v6.3.3.1 as an external DNS server. Infoblox uses CNR as its forwarder and CNR uses the root DNS servers for queries.
    I would think that CNR was the problem because it is an obsolete product but after speaking with a fellow engineer at another organization where they still use an older version of CNR than mine, they have no problems at all. So now I am thinking it is a setting either on Infoblox, or on CNR I need to change. I can see Infoblox is forwarding the requests to CNR but that's about it. I am not sure if CNR is discarding the request. When I do an nslookup from a PC in my network it does not matter if I set my DNS server to be the Infoblox or the CNR. Neither resolves the URL.
    Then again, no matter what I lookup using the CNR as my DNS, I only get a response with the root DNS names and IPs!
    Any help is appreciated!

    Hi Constantinos,
    Have you taken a look at the infoblox community site?  We've just reposted your question there and alerted some internal SMEs that should provide a solution soon.

  • HP LaserJet Pro 300 color MFP runs cleaning and Mis Prints Error with Printing above 5 pages

    I have an HP Pro 300 Printer with New genuine cartridges. But when I print or make copies of multi page jobs it always comes up with a message on the screen which says "cleaning"  and then give a "Mis Printer Error".The printer is out of warranty. The Print quality is excellent but the error it gives all the time is a major problem. Has anyone solution for this? Please help! Thanks  

    Restoring the defaults doesnt usually purge out the memory of a printer.  You need a cold reset to complete that proceedure. Cold Reset steps:http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Issues-Troubleshooting/HP-LaserJet-Pro-200-color-MFP-M276nw-Cold-reset/td-p/5060955 The video at the bottom of the first page is very helpful.
