This is an Exchange forum, but I'll answer your question
because it's quick.
Decommission forest: Break the trusts and turn off the
DC.
Move DNS: Make your DNS server a secondary and force a
zone transfer. Then make it an Active Directory-integrated
zone.
Good luck!-- Ed Crowley MVP"There are

Thanks for the info; its actually transferring the zone from another forest. How can I make it secondary, force a zone transfer, etc?
Thanks again for the help!
