The problem is that when you nodes defined to a domain just moving a new domain from another profile into place can not be done. On the "managed" server you can create a new domain (temporarily). Then at the domain level you can issue the move nodes to another domain and select the temp domain. Then you can update the profile to bring down the domain from your configuration manager. Lastly, you will have to move the nodes from the temp domain back to the STANDARD domain. From that point forward any changes to the domain on the configuration manager will be replicated. The only problem is that once you move nodes out of domain you loose their schedule associations. So it is a good idea to run the "q event * *" to a file first so that you can recreate the schedule associations after you move the nodes back. Kyle

(SESSION: 73099) Stupid question, but should I not expect the configuration manager to be able to update existing domains, etc. across my complex? Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong, or if I have the wrong expectations? Thank you. John Bremer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
