Title: Removing A W2K Domain Where The Host Server No Longer Exists

I am in the process of promoting 2 W2K3 servers as domain controllers in an existing W2K Native Mode domain.

The dcpromo for both of these boxes has been successful.

One of these boxes has been set up to have the Global Catalog but this fails, I get the following Event IDs in the Directory Services event log:

1559, 1578, 1809, 1110.

The event ID 1559 refers to a domain called PUBLIC.COM.

Apparently this domain was created in error by a bored support guy, who then in his wisdom trashed the server without demoting it.

All I want to do is delete this domain so the GC will load correctly but I do not get the option to delete this domain in AD Domains and Trusts.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Cheers
