    Locked

    I currently have a w2k3 sbs server running and stupidly created an extra long domain name. Can i change the domain name without mucking up too much stuff?

      It’s my experience that to change the domain name, you have to re-install AD, which essentiallyt means re-installing from scratch.

      Our company changed name 2 years ago, and I ran into the same problem.
      Then, the only ooption was a re-install..
      In the end, I waited 12 months, at which time we were replacing the servers, so re-installed Server2K3 with the new domain name…

      W2K3 AD name change

      You can now change the AD name on Server 2K3, but I don’t know about SBS. Hopefully one of the SBS guru’s will respond.
