RE: [ActiveDir] AD screw up

Ok, how about this. I create a new child OU in my existing domain called corp. I then move all users and objects from the root domain to the corp child. Then I rename the root domain. Does that sound like it will work? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Salandra, Justin A.

I found info at Microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/deploymentscenarios/scenarios/ou_design_implement_ou_structure.asp   now my question is - Since I already created an AD containing an OU of what I would like to be a child how can I create the parent to insert the child into. Or is that even possible? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Salandra, Justin A.

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.   Drew
