Situation : Update a SBS 2000 Network to SBS 2008 network.
What happened : OK so you can't do an update from 2000 to 2008 (SBS) because apparently it will just flop so I upgraded the 2000 server to SBS 2003, this took ages, you need Exchange 2003 SP2, Windows 2003 SP2 and SBS SP1 before you can then attempt to migrate to 2008. Anywho I then crated the answer file that you need to get everything to migrate and reinstalled SBS 2008 ready for the change over.... only it failed the domain was a single label domain so it flopped big time... Oh well.
Lesson Learned : Don't even attempt to update SBS 2000 or SBS 2003 to SBS 2008 if you have a single label domain, you will get so far into the SBS 2008 installation and then it will fail stating "you cannot migrate from a single label domain" or something similar.
