Metadata cleanup

[ciscotx]

One of my domain controllers had a two disk failure in an Array 5 configuration and I could not recover the OS installation after replacing the two disks. so I had to do a fresh install, now after the installation I want to use the same computer name for the domain controller but it won't let me join it to the domain, it tells me "The following error ocurred attempting to join the domain "xxx.com" The specified user already exists." What do I do so I am able to use the same name?? Thanks

If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions?
