Nope lingering objects and phantoms are very different.
Phantoms are expected and purposeful (but probably not something you will
generally see), lingering objects are accidental and unexpected (unless you did
something bad then you may expect them) and stick right out in the directory
when present. Phantoms help you, lingering objects hurt you. Maybe Dean will
swing by with a good overview of phantoms. I won't talk about phantoms much if I
know Dean is in range, he loves the IM and Phantoms almost as much as he loves
DNS. :o)
As for repadmin /lingeringobjects. Try
this
repadmin /experthelp
and then scroll down looking at the info under the
text

the P.S., glad you enjoyed it. I absolutely had a blast myself, by far the best
DEC or even the best conference I have ever attended. It will stand out in my
memory for a long long time to come. I do think, however, that we can top it
next year. Dean and I were speaking with Stuart Kwan about some ideas he had for
the next DEC and they were absolutely great, I think people will really
appreciate it. I have to say that people should sign up early next year for
DEC though because they may have to cut off the ticket sales; start planning now
so you don't have issues getting the approval then.
The
sheer amount of talent and knowledge running around the halls during the event
is amazing. If someone had an AD question they couldn't get answered, I think
they were in the minority. Also the talent to smarmy ratio is quite good.
At a lot of conferences, you get that sort of slimey feeling from various folks
who just want to collect your business cards and then glom all over you, you
don't get that feeling anywhere near as much at DEC as in some settings. Even
when NetPro did the near obligatory "who we are and what we do" which they are
completely entitled to doing at the beginning of conference it was informative
and humourous and I thoroughly enjoyed it as I think it set a great tone for the
whole week. Kudos again to the folks at NetPro and everyone who presented and
attended.

- Are lingering objects the same as phantom objects? - The help for repadmin on my 2003/SP1 DCs doesnt indicate a /removelingeringobjects option. What version do you have that lets you do this?
Thanks!
Mike Thommes
Ps. Had a good time at DEC2006; the collection of brainpower there was awesome!

You will probably want to look at repadmin /removelingeringobjects, you can find it listed in the expert help of repadmin.
I have a utility up on my website that can help find lingering objects as well, including some that repadmin won't find[1]. It is called GCCHK.
