Hi All,
I wanna Remove an active dir domain but I need to save
all User Acounts .
Is there a way to do it ?
Thanks in advance ,

Well, you might want to consider using LDIFDE to export
all of the user/group accounts to an .ldf file...
The syntax would be 'ldifde -m -f thatdomain.ldf'. You
would run this from the command prompt on one of your DCs
from the domain that you want to remove.
*The "-m" simnply adds the SAM logic on the export
*The "-f" indicates what to call the file / where to place
it
*The "thatdomain.ldf" is the name of the file
*The location - as per this example - would be c:\...if
you wanted it someplace else - like C:\RemoveDomain then
you would have to create the "RemoveDomain" folder and
indicate this location by using "-f
c:\RemoveDomain\thatdomain.ldf"

Please note: this will simply put to a file all of the
users and groups ( including user membership ) so that you
can have it for future reference. It will not "move" the
user/group accounts to another domain. If you want that
then consider either MOVETREE or ADMT v2...
