See kb216498 for the info. on the NTDSUTIL
cleanup. Basically you need to perform a metadata, DNS and FRS
cleanup. ThatKB details all the necessary steps.
You'd determine the IP address of the workgroup
by the 1B and 1C records registered for that name.
The domain master browser is performed by the
PDCe. A master browser is also elected on a per-subnet basis. Check
out the Win2k RK book - TCP/IP core networking guide for more info.
There's an appendix on the browser service.

domains..
Thanks Neil -
How would one determine the IP of the
members of a particular workgroup ?
RE: NTDSUTIL - just do a search,
that matches the whole string, for the domain name ? and remove accordingly
?

Look for
1b and 1c records in WINS for the defunct domain. Remove them and wait for
WINS replication.
You
should also use ntdsutil and remove the redundant AD objects
too.
You can
never stop ppl creating new workgroups - you should be able to determine the
IP address of their members however and then track back to individual
machines / users.

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 ?
