when you are done copying, run

/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot

this causes the server to rebuild itself.

I would leave the old server around for at least a week to make sure you didn't forget anything.

You also need to copy:

/etc/samba/* = this holds all the details of any computers you have added to the domain etc.

hth.
