Thanks. This says ...
  1.. "Double-click the Sites branch to expand it, and then double-click the
appropriate site's branch (the site the server resides in) to expand it.
  2.. Double-click the server's container, right-click the server object,
and then click Delete."
The BDC server to be deleted is not in Sites and Services, and so can not be
chosen for deletion.

Thanks. This says "To resolve this issue, delete the Domain Controller's
server object from Active Directory Sites and Services Management Console".

The BDC server to be deleted is not in Sites and Services, and so can not be
chosen for deletion.

This is an old NT BDC we're talking about. I am not demoting it to a member
server, nor using DCPromo (which only works on Win2K). I just want the
antique thing gone from my AD, since I don't need it anymore ....

At this point, I guess I should be asking ... how do I add an NT BDC to my
Sites and Services, so that I can then use one of these innumerable deletion
methods that all seem to depend upon membership in Sites and Services?
