I have a computer object in my Win2K3 AD that I'm trying
to delete. I receive an error "Cannot Delete object
<object name>. There may be objects associated with
container"
This is only a computer obect under the Workstation
container in AD. Why would I be getting this?
 
Sometimes msg similar to that will come up when there are subfolders to an
object in AD - viewable in adsiedit. Not sure exactly why you're seeing
that, but if you want to delete it, and can't via aduc, use adsiedit.msc
(included in support tools off CD) and should be able to as its an AD editor
in gui form.
