I only want to know, because I know this guid is the guid of a DC. I get errors logged in the directory services event log(event id 1085) that my DC can't contact this dc for replication. This guid is not present in the _msdc zone on the root dc, so i'm wondering where the hell it is in AD and why my dc is still trying to rep with it? failed demotion? Right now, i just want to know the name of the dc and which domain its in. thanks again

Is this because that attribute's syntax is an Octal string? I'm just curious...not knowing too much about the way these things are stored!
