Siezing RID master role

[Johnnyt1000]

Testing recovery of Windows 2003 server environment. Restored all system state data to new hardware on a test network not messing with live environment. Managed to transfer all operations master roles apart from RID Master to new computer. Tried siezing the role which also failed with the following error.

C:\>ntdsutil
ntdsutil: roles
fsmo maintenance: connections
server connections: connect to server cgi.lan
Binding to cgi.lan ...
Connected to cgi.lan using credentials of locally logged on user
server connections: quit
fsmo maintenance: seize domain naming master
Attempting safe transfer of domain naming FSMO before seizure.

Win32 error returned is 0x20af(The requested FSMO operation failed. The current

Depending on the error code this may indicate a connection,

Is there any magic way of forcing this to go?

I'm confused. Are you trying to seize the RID or the domain naming master?

fsmo maintenance: seize domain naming master

I have the same problem while trying to move the RID Master to the 2003 server. Any help for me?
