Mark, Sat on a train at the moment, but look for the MS article on how to clean up DC metadata. This should resolve the replication issues.

The server had issues so I put the roles on another DC and demoted it to a member server. I then deleted all of the static site links that I had set up and let AD configure them automatically. It has been working fine for a while, but now, for some reason, this server is still being seen as a DC because some of the other DC=B9s are still trying to replicate with it. I went into Sites and Services and deleted the links, but it won=B9t actually let me deleted the server container for that DC that isn=B9t a DC anymore. I= t says it can=B9t delete the DSA object. How the heck do I get rid of this DC in AD once and for all. Thanks, Mark Orlando IT Dept.
