Promigra Server Migrator

“For an "R2," Server 2008 R2 delivered a fairly impressive list of new goodies for Active Directory (AD) techies.  One of the most important of those goodies was Active Directory’s new support of PowerShell scripting, in combination with 73 new AD-related PowerShell cmdlets and their GUI cousin, a brand-new administrative tool for AD called the Active Directory Administrative Center (ADAC).”

“I really like some of the new PowerShell cmdlets and really like the ADAC GUI tool, so I was pleasantly surprised to learn that you can fairly simply bring R2′s PowerShell cmdlets and ADAC to any Active Directory running pre-R2 domain controllers.  In fact, you can even retrofit Powershell and ADAC support on domain controllers as far back Windows Server 2003.”
