Please log in for more thread options My thoughts are:
How likely is it that the Recovery Console can solve this problem?
From what I read I don't expect too much?
Might a other application (Distributed file system) have it locked?
Can I see this anywhere?
What settings are needed to enforce the Admin can always take ownership,
regardless of any other configuration? Where are such settings located (the
system is a domain controller, by the way).
