Our building is currently under ABC.local. This includes a primary and secondary domain controller, some servers with databases attached, an email server, a couple file servers, and some Citrix boxes.
I have two servers setup as XYC.ABC.local with Server 2003, I will be wiping the OS partition and installing Server 2008 and will need to reestablish them as XYC.ABC.local. Is this as simple as following a guide such as this?

... and then joining the rest of our servers to the new domain?
Is it pretty simple at the point to migrate all of the previous domain's users to the new subdomain?
I'm afraid to take too aggressive of an approach or that I may be making it sound simpler than it seems.
Lastly, what would be the easiest way to migrate all of our PC's to the new domain instead of manually joining each one?
Greatly appreciate the help, I feel as if I've done my homework on this but also feel like I could be missing something major.
