Guest Steve Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 I had a server die recently and now I've got a situation where the dhcp mmc keeps showing the old server in the authorized servers list. This is kind of annoying but not causing any problems that I can detect. Anyone know how to clean this out? The old server will never be restored. Anything else I need to clean out in this situation (server death)? Replication was cleaned up using sites and services (deleted the dead server) and nothing else seems to be broken.
