Cannot demote BDC.

[Guest Luca]

Hullo, today i tried to demote a Windows 2003 server BDC to a stand alone

server or member server but, unfortunatelly, dcpromo command aborted its

operations with an error. I tried also with dcpromo /forceremoval but i had

same result. I would like to know if exist a manual procedure to demote it

or an utility able to do it for me.

Thanks.
