I have several dc's that i want to rebuild, both on
different servers, I have read some that it is not
recommended to use the same name as the old ones for new
hardware, if i blow it completely away from ad,dns,etc..,
is there a way around this?

Thanks much
 
As long as you dcpromo the old on sucessfully then there is no problem to
rebuild the Dc on new hardware.
