What is the full process for removing a domain controller cleanly from an ADS domain? Is just running dcpromo to demote it enough?<br />
<br />
Are there other references to it in AD that I also need to manually delete to ensure it has completely disappeared.<br />
<br />
Should I run any utilities afterwards to see if machines are stil trying to connect to it or replicate to it<br />
<br />
Please advise.<br />

removing a windows 2000 domain controller

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
