That's not feasible, at this time, unfortunately. I need to demote this DC before I can upgrade the domain. This DC is having errors on DCDIAG. That's why we want to retire it, and allow the domain time to replicate that change, before we run ADPREP/FORESTPREP, and then upgrade the domain to Win2003 on Sat. > Then after hours do a quick IP address swap so the new DC has the old DC's IP > address for your static clients. Then start bringing down the old DC. So there should be no problem, with changing the IP of a DC? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
