Hi. I have a server with Windows 2000 Active Directory Domain and 200
computers joined to that domain. I need to change those computers to a
server with a new Windows 2003 Active Directory Domain Name. For Example,
change
all computers from test1.domain.com to test2.domain.com.

Is there any Script or GPO or anything to do this without going to each
computer and change the domain?

any ideas?
 
It is not clear what you are saying...

Is it correct if I say you have a W2K domain with clients that are a member
of that domain and you want those same clients to be member of the W2K3
domain instead of the W2K domain?

If that is true, you could use
NETDOM with the MOVE option

or
ADMTv3 and migrate the computers to the new domain

the first option would be easier, but the second option is better if you
also need to migrate other objects like users and groups
