Anyone know if there is a way to reset the AD structure to the default? I have inherited a domain that needs a reset or rebuild... hopeing for the reset.

I have already done the secedit to repair the secsetup.inf.

Thanks

You could hit the "delete" button a lot. :)

There isn't a restore to defaults, it would involve the removal of data and MS would not be held accountable for such an action. Your best bet is to simply load up a new server with a new forest and start from there.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
