The domain is now Win2k. I upgraded the PDC, and was in the process of upgrading BDCs. My problem still exists:
I now have this Win2k DC that can't even run DCPROMO.. when I try to reduce it to a member server, it says it can't authenticate with the domain, "Access denied" even when I manually enter the domain or enterprise admin accounts... what the heck should I try??
