Hi,

I'd like to know how come it takes hours to delete a computer account
sometimes? Other times, it's instant.

We've currently running W2K3 Domain with NT4 BDC with "NT4Emulator" switch
in place on all W2K3 DCs. Sometimes, if I try to delete a computer account
through "Domain Server Manager", the account is deleted but still shows up.
Do a sync on all domain controllers and according to Event Viewer, the
changes were replicated everywhere. Yet, the computer name still shows and
if I hit delete again, it will say the computer has been deleted and it's
waiting for another update interval which will happen in 15 minutes.

Any ideas?

We currently have 4 W2K3 Domain Controllers, 1 NT4 BDC. Not sure if the BDC
is doing something weird. However, we're not ready to take the NT4Emulator
switch off.

Thanks.
