HELP.

I am in a twist here as to what is going on and am unable to resolve.

History.

Two of our Domain Controllers Tombstoned due to network card issues.

I attempted to demote the controllers but had some access issues. I believe at least one of them is now ok and has demoted successfully (I believe). I tried to re-join the domain but kept getting "the specified account already exists" and it would not re-join. I checked DNS objects etc and there were no remnants of the server anywhere. Other Domain controllers cannot see this computer either.

I eventually deleted the Server completely and built another VM using the same credentials as the original. However, when I attempt to join the domain I get the same issue "the specified account already exists".

I really don't know what to do next and need to get this resolved soonest as we are due to migrate objects in AD to a different domain.

Please could someone offer any advice.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards.
