    Recieving the folowing error using ntdsutil.exe

    first ran:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/230306

    than rec'd
    metadata cleanup: remove selected domain
    DsRemoveDsDomainW error 0x2015(The directory service can perform the requested o
    peration only on a leaf object.)

    than ran:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/887424/

    here though, I get:

    domain management: delete nc dc=Tulsa,DC=Corp,DC=Mon,dc=com
    ldap_delete_ext_sW error 0x42(66 (Not allowed on Non-leaf).
    Ldap extended error message is 00002015: UpdErr: DSID-03100B8E, problem 6003 (CA
    NT_ON_NON_LEAF), data 0

    Win32 error returned is 0x2015(The directory service can perform the requested o
    peration only on a leaf object.)
    )
    domain management:

    Can't find help on this error anywhere.  Any suggestions?  From what I can tell the problem in the ADSI Edit is the configuration CN=Partitions, but when i try to remove that in the gui it gives me:
    "The Directory service can perform the requested operation only on a leaf object"

    In AD Sites and Services the site is not listed, but in my AD Domains it still is.

    Verify that the domain you are trying to remove does not host any application partitions (in particular, DomainDNSZones). This can be done via ntdsutil (domain management context). If so, delete those first
