When a LAN Manager backup domain controller (BDC) or member server resides in a Windows NT Server domain, the LAN Manager server may fall out of sync with the primary domain controller. The following procedure describes how to re-synchronize a LAN Manager Server in a Windows NT domain:


 * 1) Demote the LAN Manager server to stand-alone. From NetAdmin, choose Security Settings from the Accounts menu. Change the Role of the server to standalone.
 * 2) Remove the LAN Manager server from the domain. In Server Manager on the Windows NT Server, select the LAN Manager server. Choose Remove from Domain from the Computer menu.
 * 3) Remove the LAN Manager server from the Server's group. From User Manager on the Windows NT Server, select the LAN Manager server. Choose Delete from the User menu.
 * 4) Promote the LAN Manager server to a backup controller or member server. From NetAdmin, choose Security Settings from the Accounts menu. Change the role of the server back to BDC or Member.
 * 5) From the OS/2 command prompt on the LAN Manager Server, run the following command:

net accounts /sync
