How can I delete a DC that is no longer available to the domain? We had an NT4.0 server that was a domain controller in a mixed NT4.0 / Windows 2000 domain, but it in essence died. Now when we try to delete it from Active Directory, we receive the "DSA object could not be deleted" message. Any ideas? Also, while we're on the subject, I have a different NT4 server on the network that I would like to get rid of as well, but we can't run dcpromo on that one, can we?
