How about on the CA just mapping the DC's C$ share with the domain admin account and
then running netdom?

Subject: [ActiveDir] Deleted computer account
OK; I've got an ugly one.
Got a VM that's running certificate services; it's the root CA for the
domain. Without going into details, the computer account for the server was
deleted from the domain. I can't get netdom or nltest to reset it; I get an
access denied. Netdom/add was able to recreate the object, but that might
have been a mistake. Still can't set the secure channel, can't log on with
domain credentials.
Since it's running cert services, I can't remove/rejoin it to the domain.
Anyone got a slick trick to get this one back? I'd hate to rebuild my CA
from scratch...
The only thing I can think of is an authoritative restore from last Friday's
backup. Haven't had to do one of those yet.
Any good documentation or better tricks?
Thanks!
