[cid:[email protected]] From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Lum Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2013 10:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [NTSysADM] Sounded so easy 2008 R2 server at remote site that was DNS/DC/File/Print. Also runs a helpdesk app (Sysaid) and AutoDesk license server and DFS. I am going to P2V it, so before doing it I wanted to demote it from domain controller. Except the demotion broke DFS and modified the firewall entries that had been allowing the FlexLM and SysAid apps, which wasn't immediately apparent (ICMP still worked, for example). Of course after spending an hour chasing not-obvious-to-me issues I kill the firewall and hey, lookie there! Nice thing is Server 2012 licensing will allow me to stand up a new DC and keep the it divorced from the "everything else" server. I hate having a DC that does much of anything else...
