So I recently got a new job at a medium sized church as their IT director and have already implemented spiceworks and its been great!
But I have a much bigger problem. They have never had an actual IT staff member so everything is a mess. They currently are on server 2008 r2 and exchange 2007 on the same physical server.
The server is a mess... its awful. Most of the computers in the network arn't even joined to the domain. So things like security groups and file share permissions are totally messed up and I want to redo all of it. So I am trying to decide if I should spend the time cleaning up the current server, or try and export the important data (emails and shared folders) into a new hyper-V server so I can split up exchange and my AD and get a fresh start to it all.
I'm wondering if someone who has done this before can share their experience doing this. I really would appreciate it. (Or yell at me for even thinking about doing it, this may be the worst idea ever, not really sure yet!)
