I need to demote a domain controller, which is not the last DC in the
domain, but I am getting an error when I make the attempt. I get a New
Credentials dialog box with "Access is denied" and it asked me to specify an
account with "Enterprise Administrator privileges to the forest". We don't
have a forest of domains, but it thinks we do and it just stops me cold. If
I enter something which has domain administrator privileges, then dcpromo
will go on for a little while longer and then complain about some other DC
and not having privileges to that.
What's wrong and what, if anything, can I do about it?
Rod
