Hello,

I have Sharepoint V2 running on one server and we have been looking at
moving to V3. However, we want to place v3 on a box of it's own. The
way it is setup is i have Sharepoint v2 on a server currently being
used for many other things. I also have another server where i have
installed v3. We have a third server running SQL 2000 where the
databases for both versions are being housed. Little to no
customizations have been done on V2 and V3 has very little content in
it currently.

Since i have v3 already installed i believe it is possible to move the
database only from v2 over to v3 without much hassel is that correct?
I have seen some articles but all have been a little confusing to me.
A Sharepoint deployment/migration article and word doc i have been
reading has been saying to use an addcontentdb operation part of the
stsadm tool but i don't see that operation as an option when i runn
stsadm.exe -help and it constantly errors out saying the operation is
invalid. Are there any step by step articles on how to do migrate the
dbase? In my setup, what is the best method for moving to v3 in your
opinion?

Thanks in advance.
