SYMPTOMS
When a computer that is running Microsoft Windows 2000 joins a new domain, Microsoft Message Queuing, also known as MSMQ, 2.0 automatically tries to use a directory server in the new domain as its Message Queuing Active Directory server if the domain controller has Message Queuing 2.0 installed. This behavior may be problematic if the computer is a member of a Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Message Queuing 2.0 enterprise and if you want the computer to remain a member of that enterprise.
