Hello Matt,
Thank you for your reply.
Please let me know the following:
1. Where did you run the Ntdsutil tool to seize the FSMO roles? Is it a
domain controller?
2. What is the notes.usrenal.com machine? Is it the previous Schema master
that on long exists?
3. How many domain controllers are there in your domain? Can you run the
command on another DC to check if it works?
Thanks!
Regards,
Joe Wu

|Hi Joe -
|
|Many thanks for your follow up. When using the Ntdsutil
|to seize the Schema Master role, I get an error when
|attempting to connect to the server in question. I get:
|
|server connections: connect to server notes.usrenal.com
|Binding to notes.usrenal.com ...
|DsBindW error 0x6d9(There are no more endpoints available
|from the endpoint mapper.)
|
|I can connect to the other domain controller in the
|domain. Thanks!
|

|>|Hi Joe -

|>|Thanks for the reply. I checked the article you sent

|role

|add

|domain

|I

|and
