Some more info on this. This morning, the SERV1 server was finally
removed. Must have happened overnight. But I still can't get the
server on the network. When I check the properties on the Server
Manager it says that the trust relationship failed. After I was able
to recreate the account this morning, I resynched with the BDC as
suggested in Q162797. Anybody know another way to rebuild a trust
relationship?
