Re: [ActiveDir] Remove Defunct domains..

[HBooGz]

hey guys -

 

 

Yes, i'm using wins.

 

Yes, they are appearing outside of network neighborhood.

 

what exactly would i examine (node type) that would help me pinpoint where these are appearing ? and how to get rid of it ?

 

definitely appears to be a browsing issue ?

 

how can i force who is the "master browser" for the domain ? all workstations are windows 2000 and windows xp

 

 

i'm also seeing workgroups that should have never been created and i'm now policing against -- any way to rid myself of this or detect where they are being generated ?

 

Thanks

Check your WINS database if you are using WINS.  Part of the browsing data comes from WINS and the database will tell you where those records are coming from.  You can address  it via the hosts if it's coming from there or clean up your WINS db.

That's a browser function not something in AD. There's probably still computers joined to those domains (even though they don't exist) or computers in workgroups with the same names…

You can remove the orphaned domains through NTDSUTIL.  Doing a metadata cleanup.

Whenever i browse Network Neighborhood or view the list of availble networks, there are a few domains that appear that shouldn't. Is there a way to remove these domain/domain entries manually ?

ADSI edit ?
