Re: [ActiveDir] Crashed Root DC HELP!

[ChuckGaff]

Do you have any other forest root domain DCs or is this the only one?  Also, which FSMOs resided on this root DC besides the Schema Master and Infrastructure Master?  Did it also have the Domain Naming Master, RID Master and PDC Emulator roles?    If you have other forest root DCs you may be able to transfer the roles using NTDSUtil -- check Microsoft.com for detailed instructions in syntax --  If not, then this is a case where you may need to try to recover the System State data from backup.   Good luck ...   Chuck Gafford Systems Architect Unisys
