Please help. I have a W2K server as a primary with Active directories. I installed additional server as an additional. Second server had a series hardware problem and I removed this server of the network. Right now I’m trying to remove the second server from the Primary, but I’m getting error message DSA Object cannot me removed. I tried ntdsutil,. But it did not help. I also removed all data from the DNS server. Can somebody help me to resolve this problem? Thank You

Be a little more clear on what you did. You mean it was a domain controller and you just removed it from the network without demoting it first? That's what it sounds like. If so, you need to use the ntdsutil utility to remove it from AD. Once you have done that (correctly) you can then go into Sites and Services and delete it. I know you said did that but you must not have done it correctly. It works. I've done it. Get the instructions from MS and follow them closely.
