Cannot logon to DS restore mode

[Anup Gandhi]

Hi There,

We have Win2000 SP4 servers. When I try to logon to the AD restore mode it
says the password is wrong. We have tried several options, even we have
tried to change the DS restore password with "Setpwd" command and etc. but
nothing works. I dont want to do the rebuild.

Can someone please help.

Thanks in advance

AG

SETPWD is the way to configure the password for DSRM admin...
check CAPS and special characters are typed correctly
