Hi,

What would happen if a computer account was about to expire and needed to be
renewed and the PDC was unavailable. I am presuming a computer account
renewal would fail as the only writable DC would be unavailable, akin to a
user not being able to update their password if a PDC is offline.

Therefore, presuming the computer account would not be able to be updated,
could the machine participate in the domain? Probably not?

Thanks
