Removing a NT BDC from AD domain.

I have an old NT4 BDC in a 2000 Active Domain.
How do I remove the BDC from the domain structure and take it off line?


Thanks.

Power it off and reformat it. :)

Seriously, there's not much to it. If it's a BDC in a Windows 2000 AD
domain, it's just holding a read-only copy of the AD database since it cant
participate in multi-master replication. Once you remove any NT4
controllers from your network, you can also convert your AD domain from
mixed mode to native if you wish.
