Hi All,
I was having some problems with a DC that I needed to rebuild as a member server. I successfully transferred all the necessary roles and the domain and directory are sound. The machine would not demote via dcpromo due to some lsass errors... I received a patch directly from Microsoft and the thing blue screened! I basically didn't need the machine as a domain controller and am happy at that, the machine has now been rebuilt as a member server under a different name. Of course the old domain controller is still lingering in the AD and other DCs are trying to replicate with it, etc. How do I remove all traces of this thing? I know it's possible with ntdsutil but am unsure about how to tackle it, if not a little apprehensive of using it. Thanks and best regards, Robert Rutherford ******************************************************************************************** This E-mail and any files transmitted with it are in commercial confidence and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
