Hello,

Currently I have a DC (BDC) that is not able to have the
TCP/IP installed in the local area connection properties.
I have tried uninstalling the TCP/IP and reinstalling the
TCP/IP stack but that did not work
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-
US;299451).)

The DC is not a Global Catalog but is a DNS, DHCP, and
WINS server.

What are the effects of simple reinstalling this DC and
bring it back up as another DC by a different name? Will
the root DC have problems? Thank you.
 
There are no BDCs in AD. If you set up DNS, WINS, and DHCP on another
server, and are *sure* this server doesn't hold the FSMO roles (transfer
them if it does), you can reinstall it from scratch.
