Guest Luca Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 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. -- _________________________ Luca P.
