Demoting will kill all the sms groups and their memberships.
You might want to run aclreset, which if I recall correctly would recreate the groups.

Seems on gotcha is that the SMS server is not added to the local
administrators group after the demotion (makes sense). This allows me not to
send apps to the DP. The HTTP errors are still there though. I can see
client machines filling the IIS logs with "401 ccmhttp" errors. Poor lost
little services...

Recently a client demoted a number of Windows 2000 DC's. These where

When looking at the MP through IE (from another computer) to for example
http://SERVER/sms_mp/.sms_aut?mplist we get

Looking at the the MPCONTROL.LOG file on these servers we see a lot of

This was not happening before the demotion. The servers that where not
demoted are fine. As I understand it when a DC uses IIS it has no local
accounts so it created domain account for things like ISUR_SERVER type
accounts. Now the servers are member servers it does seem to have created
these accounts locally.
I cant find anything on demoting a secondary server running as a DC (not
recommended I know but common enough).
Any ideas out there? I am not a SMS or IIS expert but I have an
understanding of the basics. Do we need to re-install IIS and SMS on these
servers? I am hoping there is a way to avoid re-distributing all that data
over our thin links.
Thanks in advance.
