I stupidly forgot to
rename a new Domain Controller before adding it to the domain. The NetDom tool
can be used to change the name of a Domain Controller.
netdom computername OldDCName
/add:NewDCNameFQDN
netdom computername OldDCName
/makeprimary:NewDCNameFQDN
|
Restart the server
at this point, and use the following command to remove the legacy SPN's.
netdom computername NewDCNameFQDN
/remove:OldDCNameFQDN
|
You then need to
update your important DNS records to match the new server name. Your domain
will not function if you do not update the Service Location Records.
