Re: Error When Removing AD from BDC

sorry i was actually able to get to the site after some time. I have
downloaded it and saved the script in the folder specified. I also have the
tools installed. When i run the script and im given the prompt to select the
tests to run i cant find either dcdiag or netdiag in either of the drop down
menus..would you mind pointing me in the right direction?
