Migrate Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0 to SQL Server 2005

Hi,

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a step-by-step guide
for migrating Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0 running on SSEE to SQL
Server 2005? I've found some docs on migrating the previous version
based on WMSDE but that is obviously a very different kettle of fish.

Cheers
Rod Taylor

Hi Rod,
is the SQL 2005 installation going to be on the same server?

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for replying. No, the SQL Server 2005 instance is installed on
a separate server. We are not using Active Directory *yet* though, so
I assume I will need to either authenticate using SQL Server Auth or
create an appropriate account on the SQL Server machine with the same
password as the account running WSS on that server.
Cheers
Rod

Hi Rod,
don't know if you made the migration yet but here is a good link you could
follow:

Hi Daniel,

That's close but it's only for moving the files to another location on
the same server, not converting to SQL 2005. Appreciate the help
though. I'm still searching ...

Cheers
Rod
