configure Veteran Share Posted July 13, 2001 I'm using win2000 server, and I'm wondering if I could change the domain without removing and install Active Directory again.. :confused: Link to post Share on other sites
sdibias Share Posted July 22, 2001 Sorry, that is not possible ! I hope this a Test lab and not a production enviroment , because the only way to change your Domain name is to run DCPromo and demote your DC back to a member Server. Then run the AD install again with your new Domain name. In any event, good luck :) sdibias Link to post Share on other sites
configure Author Veteran Share Posted July 25, 2001 Finally someone reply :D Thanks for the tip. Hey how can I backup users? By using Backup tools in Accessories? Link to post Share on other sites
sdibias Share Posted August 3, 2001 Do you only want to back up users ? When you specify your Backup, and if you back up everything, users are backed up as well. If you know where the users are stored, you could back them up without backing up everything else. Link to post Share on other sites
