Dont know how to restore Directory service.
Does any one know?
help please.
 
Reboot the server and press F6 immediately after the bar
starts moving accross the bottem. This will give you a
bootup menu choose Restore mode. You will need to have
the password that you used when you DCPROMOd the server.
 
correction that would be F8
