Change Active directory domain name after company bankruptcy.

$

Our company has gone through a bankruptcy that changed it's name. I would like to investigate the options for changing our AD tree to match (1 Forest, 1 domain at server 2003 level).

I know the domain can be renamed, but haven't done it before, and comments I've seen suggest problems.

Alternatively, considering creating a new forest with the desired name and then creating a forest trust between them. Then use AD migration tools to move users and resources between forests.

I'm wondering if anyone has best practices/experience with this process.
