Dear all,

I need to remove my domain and my naming context using the
metadata clean up, last time when i used to remove
selected server, it worked, but after that, when i want to
remove selected domain and remove selected naming
context,for that particular server, it came out an error
of "DsRemoveDsDomainW error 0x20ab( The cross reference
for the specified naming context could not be found"), I
hope that you guys can give me ideas on how to solve this
issues... Thank you... hope to hear from u


regards
emma
 
Make sure, that you are connecting to a live DC when performing a domain
cleanup, next use
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q230306 to cleanup
domain. If you get an error during this use
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q235416 for manually
removing TDO (trusted domain object). Problem in this QArticle is, that it
is missing one step prior to removing TDO and this is to remove server from
the sites settings in AD.
