Hi there,
I am planning to decommission my W2k AD server but I have a few concerns. I have some directories and printers sharing out to my company. If I run dcpromo to decommission my server, will it de-share all folders and printers too?
Thanks

It shouldn't, no. All you're doing (or should be doing) is demoting it.
Hi , sorry to mislead. Dcpromo an AD server is to demote it. If I demote it to member server, will all my shared folders be de-shared?
Thanks for the reply.
As stated, shouldn't be an issue.
After you run DCPromo and demote the Domain Controller to a Member Server, the shared resources will still be intact.
