Hello All,

I have recently had some problems with one of my servers. In the process of
correcting them I moved all FSMO roles to another domain controller without
any problems and then demoted the server. However since I have done this on
other systems that I have admin tools installed I can't connect with the
following error:

"Naming information cannot be located for the following reason:
The server is not operational"

Any ideas?

Regards,

Roger
 
One common cause for this error message is a problem with the DNS setup.
I'd check that the DNS server pointed to by the DNS client settings on your
network interface is reachable, isn't reporting problems in the eventlog,
and that the SRV records for the remaining DCs are correctly set on it.
