Sharepoint Server 2007 - Change Authentication to AD

I set up a test Sharepoint 2007 Server before I set up a test AD Server to add it to. Based on what I read I did this backwards and if I would have set it up the other way around Sharepoint would use AD by default.

Is there a way I can change the configuration so this Sharepoint server will authenticate against the domain?

I did some searches in the configuration as well as SO and Google and couldn't come up with anything obvious.

Thanks!

You'll have to move your server into the new AD domain. Optionally you can change all the accounts that are used by SharePoint services to domain accounts, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934838. SharePoint will continue to work with local accounts though.

For any user rights assignment you did using local server accounts you can run the command: stsadm -o migrateuser to migrate user accounts from local\user to domain\user.
