The inpact depends on how things are setup.
-Where are your SLX shares (Archives, Infiles, Outfiles, WGLogs, Documents, and Library) located?
-Will the machine name change?
-Do you use FTP or Network syncing?
If none of the shares are on the syncserver and the machine name remains the same then you don't need to do anything.
If the SLX shares are on the syncserver then you will need to move then.
If the machine name changes you will need take special steps because the logging path is stored in the remote databases. |

Are you simply changing the domain membership of the server (assuming no data transfer, no machine name changes, no share/file structure changes, etc) or are you putting your environment on new hardware?
What kinds of problems are you having?

-Will the machine name change? we' ll install it in a new domain.
-Do you use FTP or Network syncing? FTP
everything is installed in the server, and we are moving to a new domain

The path to the FTP server is stored in a blob in the SyncTransfer table as an IPAddress or a Hostname in the format of hostname.domain.com.
If the HostName and/or IPAddress changed then you will need to update the Sync Transfer informaiton on the SyncServer, and update remote. There is a tool in the admin that can help with updating the remotes... check out Extracting the sync transfer profile to a STP file. Once you have this file you can copy it to each remote, and use it to update the informaiton in the host.
