Thanks jimmy, but I was not looking for a Solution.
I had already recovered and restored.
I was looking at other possilities. Like I could use this offline DC to
salvage my AD should the need arise. Like if current DC is lost and no
chance of recovery. I could Connect this old recovered DC to another server
do DCpromo and add the various services DNS, DHCP, etc.,. Then stick this
new server on to my netwok.
There will be some account changes that will be loss and mess up a few users
and WSs. But I would have most of AD back.
