RE: [ActiveDir] Remove Defunct domains..
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.

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 viathe hosts if
it's coming from there or clean up your WINS db.

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.

That would depend upon whether or not the domains are appearing because of metadata, or whether they're appearing because of "bad" browsing information. Do the domains appear anywhere besides Network Neighborhood? Is WINS in use? If so, are there entries in WINS representing the domains? Without knowing exactly where the defunct domains are appearing and where they aren't, it's tough to call whether or not it's a problem of metadata or browsing.

RE: [ActiveDir] Remove Defunct domains..
dusting off old NT 4.0 sectors 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 viathe hosts if it's coming from there or clean up your WINS db.

Thats a browser function not something in AD. Theres probably still computers joined to those domains (even though they dont exist) or computers in workgroups with the same names Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of WATSON, BENSent: Wednesday, August 02, 2006 5:05 PMTo: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.orgSubject: RE: [ActiveDir] Remove Defunct domains..

Re: [ActiveDir] Remove Defunct domains..
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 ?
