Move DFS namespace to a new server

$

Right now DFS is installed on a windows 2003 server.  I need to move this function to a new windows 2012 server.  I do not use replication and I do not need to move the files and folders to a new server.  I just need to move DFS to another server so I can shut down the 2003 server. 

I'm not sure how to go about doing this.  I've read a ton of articles, but nothing tells me how to accomplish just the DFS move.  I've installed it to the server, but don't know what to do next.  Can you provide some specific steps that need to be done?  I also want to make sure that my permissions on the files and folders don't change.  One article I was reading made it seem like that might happen.
