Default Cant get Win NT server to rejoin Win2003 AD



I had Windows NT server which already was a member server on a Win 2003

AD but had a disk crash. Used Norton Ghost and managed to get
everything back on to a new disk. But now the sever will not rejoin the

domain. Suspect it may be a SID issue, but looking for ideas. Can ping
ok over the network and have managed to add to a local domain (AD is a
WAN), and can browse okay, but server refuses to join.

Thanks in advance,


Johnny

1. Delete the lingering machine account in AD.
2. Use GhostWalker (came with Ghost) to alter the SID of the machine after
is was reimaged.
3. Make sure the NT machines uses the correct WINS and DNS in its network
settings (WINS is very important to NT4).
4. Rejoin it to the Domain.
