  Hi. I have a CRM 4.0 environment, and I need to migrate to CRM 2011. In the same time, I need to change the domain of the servers (2 web front end, one SQL database). What the best way to proceed it? Can I 'clean' the web front end servers, keep the CRM 4.0 database, upgrade the web front end servers and load the CRM 4.0 database? Many thanks Please note that I already tried (in our test server) to migrate the domain, but it is a real nightmare... I published all th edetails in this community.dynamics.com/.../108852.aspx
