Hi all,

Sorry to bump my own thread but are there any suggestions for this issue?

Thanks,

Alex

Just to note, I have seen the same problem deleting "real" Windows Server DCs with rc4 and rc5. The first time I try deleting the DC via ADUC, I get the error:

*Windows cannot delete object LDAP://10.1.1.254/CN=ADC2,OU=Domain <http://10.1.1.254/CN=ADC2,OU=Domain> Controllers,DC=internal,DC=testdom,DC=com because:
The parameter is incorrect.

On subsequent tries, the following error is displayed:

Windows cannot delete object LDAP://10.1.1.254/CN=ADC2,OU=Domain <http://10.1.1.254/CN=ADC2,OU=Domain> Controllers,DC=internal,DC=testdom,DC=com because:
The specified module could not be found.*

*My testing has shown that Windows Servers often fail to demote in various circumstances, so a solution to remove them from AD would be very useful.*

    Hiya,


    I have an S4 domain running that I added another S4 machine to as
    an extra domain controller. That machine, unfotunately died (quite
    spectacularly I must say, think magic blue smoke). I would like to
    remove the dead domain controller from the domain.

    In ADUC I can see the DC under 'Domain Controllers' but when I try
    to delete it (having ticked the 'permanently offline' box) I get
    the following error:

    "Windows cannot delete object
    LDAP://tainan.internal.stmaryscollege.co.uk/CN=PEFW01,OU=Domain
    <http://tainan.internal.stmaryscollege.co.uk/CN=PEFW01,OU=Domain>
    Controllers,DC=internal,DC=stmaryscollege,DC=co,DC=uk because:

    The specified module could not be found."

    Is there a command line tool that I could try (samba-tool doesn't
    seem to have an option to remove the machine).

    Any other suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Alex
