    transfering user profiles in xp.

    i'm upgrading a network from nt4 server to 2003 server. and i'm replacing most of the computers because they are win95. but their is about 5 computers that are already winxp. is there a way to transfer the user profile once the xp computers join the new domain. all the xp computers are sp2 and are currently part of the old domain. the new domain has a different name to it, mainly because the guys that put it in way back in the day used some real oddball naming. the main reason i want to transfer the profile is so i don't have to reset up the emails and all the certficates they use on these computers. thanks in advance

    does file settings and transfer wizard work if you are transfering the files on the same computer. becuase i'll i'm doing is changing the domain the computer logs into.
