I want to rename a Windows 2003 domain that is part of a forest, but when I
look up the documentation on Microsoft's web site many of the links seem to
be broken. Have they pulled support for the rendom tool or is the web site
just a mess? If this tool is still supported, can someone point me at a
real copy of the step by step instructions? There is a link on the page
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/downloads/domainrename.mspx but
it is broken.

Thanks,

The links on this page work for me, I can download domainrename.exe and the
two Word files. Are you behind a firewall or web filter that doesn't allow
..exe downloads perhaps?

Check again, if you still have problems I can email them to you if you
like.
 
I can get the exe and the document that outlines what is going to happen,
but the detailed instruction document gives me a 500 - internal server
error. I have no problems getting anything else from anywhere; strange.
Something I'm sending is not liked by Microsoft's server, that's for sure.

If you could email that document that would be fantastic. I'm dvomsaal

Just a quick update: I was able to get the document via a client's network
and have successfully changed the domain name. Thanks!
