Hi all,

Just wondering if someone could help me with the following: I now wish to change the primary domain of my PDC; therefore, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how we do this. The PDC controls two other PC’s; therefore, would also need to update these as well :slight_smile:

Thanks

Hi all,

  5. Click OK three times, and then restart the computer.
