Ok I have a few questions.

Here is the current network layout.

Server 1 - Roles: Domain controller, Exchange server, Maximizer database server(MSDE), Beam 2D server, Norton Antivirus server, Questica database, Intranet website, and file server

Server 3 - Roles: Domain contoller, AccPac database (Pervasive), and file server

Citrix - Role: Member server, Citrix server

Exposed server - Role: Exposed internet services – gateway SMTP, staging server for live website, Arial Campaign software, SMTP/POP server for outside companies

I want to put in a new server with SBS 2003, and demote Server 1 and Server 3 from domain controllers to member servers and keep them for now. I am not going to migrate Exchange just yet. I just want the users to use the new server as the domain server to login to for now. Is there a very basic way to do it so that all current applications will continue to work, internet access still works, and so on?

How can I tell how our internet is setup here? How can I tell which server or router is DHCP?

Thanks

IPCONFIG /ALL in DOS box from any client will tell you which machine does DHCP.
