My w2k PDC just died, totally crashed and burned which hosts my AD. Only
have a BDC NT4 box (needed for unix server to do NTLM with domain), got no
other BDC w2k boxes and my system state backup happens to be corrupted on
the media its on. (Murphy working its magic again).
So in theory Im dead! and probably will have to build another AD, using the
NT4 BDC which has the basic user account information to upgrade to a new w2k
domain
Then switch over all computers to new domain, and some how get access to the
mailboxes/PF's on the exchange server? I have all the mailboxes/folders on
backup (medias still good) so can probably redirect restore to another
exchange server, since I dont think I can easily reclaim the exchange server
due to different domain security ID's for all the objects.
Im on the right track, anyone got a miracle solution?
