Demoting the DC should automatically transfer the roles (GC, PDC, etc) to other domain controllers in the domain. -----Original Message----- From: MSU Network Administrators Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Vasquez, Timo Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2007 12:56 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [MSUNAG] Error when demoting a DC? Before demotion did you remove all the roles from it? -----Original Message----- From: MSU Network Administrators Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Al Puzzuoli Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2007 12:17 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [MSUNAG] Error when demoting a DC? Hi all, I attempted to demote a domain controller, and right after starting dcpromo, the operation failed with the following oh so descriptive error message: Failed to configure the service NETLOGON as requested The wait operation timed out. Any ideas where to start here? I have no idea what it's complaining about.
