RE: [ActiveDir] AD screw up

Title: Message
It appears that what I want to do is rename the existing domain from corp.adroot to adroot, then create the corp OU under it. Unfortunately it looks like if I have an exchange server I am not going to be able to rename it.
 
 
Is my only other choice to start from scratch?
 
Can I set up antother server with the root name and import the corp domain into it as in OU. I'm reaching hard here.

I suppose I could. Where can I find information on setting that up?

You could do that, but are you sure you can’t accomplish what you want to do with just one domain and a detailed OU strcture?

Not knowing what I was doing I set up an AD at my company corporate office. I then converted everyone over to it along with my Exchange server.

 

Now I also have a couple of branch offices and want to create children.

 

The mistake I made was that I did not set up an Empty Root Domain first. I setup the corporate domain as the first server.

 

This is what I would like to do. Tell me if I am wrong or if you have any other suggestions.

 

 

Root - ADRoot

child - corp.ADRoot

child - branch1.ADRoot

child - branch2.ADRoot

 

I do not want the domains to be internet FQDN.
