Re: Moving SBS MS CRM database to a new Server

Hi Mikey,

I'd be inclined to backup the databases, delete all entries in license table
and then try the new installation connecting to this database. This approach
seems to work if you want CRM to "forget" the previous licensing keys
altogether. I'm not sure if this is not a more serious issue but it's worth
the shot.

Hope this helps
