Hi folks,

I'm a newbie to Server 2003. In the course of
troubleshooting a problem, in AD Users and Computers,
I "reset the account" and got knocked off our Windows 2000
domain.

I now need to rejoin the domain. I've tried netdom,
unsuccessfully, I think primarily do to the syntax I used.
There has got to be a straightforward way to rejoin the
domain but I can't find it. I've searched the KB, Google
all to no avail. I did remove the computer account from AD
and created a new one.

I've been staring at this so long I very well may be
missing the obvious.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks!
Gene
