Removing Last NT BDC from AD Domain

[mairving]

I have upgraded all of my domain controllers to W2K except for my last remaining NT BDC. It had Exchange 5.5 on it but Exchange 2000 was added to another server and Exchange 5.5 has been removed. The machine is currently shutdown and will be robbed for parts. How can I remove it from the the domain controllers object properly on the AD side?

If you do not want to bring it back up then take a look at this MS KBA 216498. Go to

and search for KBA 216498.

Yeah, I was finally able to get it resolved. I went into Server Manager on the NT box and was able to remove the computer from the domain. I also had to add a lmhosts setting to the NT box to tell it who the PDC was. All is fine now.

Thanks.
