I think his meaning is that just copy Users and Computers in AD without FSMO or other information like GPO.

I followed all the steps in using admt 3.2 to migrate users and passwords but for some reason i'm stuck on the Password Options Migrate passwords screen in ADMT. I selected my migration source DC and when i press next it keeps showing me the "Unable to establish a session with the password export server. The local machine does not have an encryption key for source domain 'SERVER2012'. Please install a local encryption key. See the ADMT help for information on password migration."
I installed an encryption key on the SERFVER2012 under C:\FMP\FileMigPass.pes and that error keeps popping out and won't let me proceed?
Please help!
