loadstate fails to move profile

[jace]

Good morning everyone....

Has anyone been successful in using the /md (move domain) swtich going from a workgroup XP to domain joined Win7 using hardlink offline.

 

Any ideas anyone........

Thank you in advance.........

I would think that, that doesn't work in this scenario's as it's meant to move a user van one domain to another domain... See also: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766226(WS.10).aspx

The doc states that the /md switch should be used when migrating a local user to a domain account which is what I am trying to accomplish.

 

Example being /md:localcomputername:newdomain

You're right, I didn't see that part... So what is the commandline you're using?

By default I am using and saving the log files else where but I have upped the logging to 13 for debugging and the logfiles really don't show anything being wrong.

loadstate "osdstatestore" /hardlink /nocompress /lac /i:miguser.xml /v:5 /md:%computername%:domainname /c

 

The restoring of the user store is not the problem, the problem is the /md (move domain) switch is not doing what it is suppose to do. It is suppose to compare the local user account to AD and if it finds a matching account change the profile so when the user logs in with their domain account it does not create a whole new profile.

 

Any ideas..........
