Change Schema Master Fail

[New User]

Hello:

I have try to change the Schema Master to another server by the
following steps.
1. Click *Start*, and then click *Run*. In the *Open* box, type mmc,
and then click *OK*.
2. When MMC starts, click *Add/Remove Snap-in* on the *Console* menu.
3. Click *Add*.
4. Click *Active Directory Schema*, click *Add*, and then click *Close*.
5. Click *OK*.
6. Right-click *Active Directory Schema*, and then click *Operations
Master*.
7. Click *The Schema may be modified on this Domain Controller*.
8. Click *OK*.


After in step 7, the change button was already dim out.

Does anything I am wrong?

Thanks!

AGAIN..

we understand it does not work. however, from your "it does not work" we
cannot just guess what the problem is. you need to give error messages,
event IDs, etc. log outputs, etc.
Besides that, and also important, things you or others have done before
haveing this error, a sum up of your environment, etc.

from the first error you gave the only I can say right is that you either
have:
(1) connectivity issues
OR
(2) DNS issues
