| Hi Gene,
the Infrastructure Master is not the most critical role.
However if you have a backup of that system I'd recommend a restore of the
Systemstate. If not, I'd seize the Infrastructure Master to another server,
clean up the Active Directory from the remainers of the old server
(Metadata-Cleanup, see here for the KBs http://www.windowsserverfaq.de/faq/AD/RemoveDC.asp).
Afterwards you should be able to install a new server and promote it as DC using
the same name as before, and move the IM again if necessary. Between the changes
make sure that AD is replicated.

ActiveDir@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [ActiveDir] Trouble adding a
new server to an AD domain
"I'm having trouble adding a new server to an AD domain. There
are 20 servers on the network, all are Windows 2003 . Three
were domain controllers. One DC housing Infrustructure FSMO Role
crashed. A new server was buit. When trying to add it as a DC using
dcpromo wizard we see:The Wizard is configuring Active
DirectoryLocated comain controller server1.mydomain.comStopping
NETLOGONExamining an existing Active Directory ForestAfter a
moment we get the error:The operation failed because: This Active
Directory installation requires domain configuration changes, but whether
these changes have been made on the domain controller server1.mydomain.com is
undetermined. The installation process has quite. "The system
cannot find the file specified".We though it might be because we named
the replacement server the same name as the one which crashed. So we
renamed the server and tried again with the same results. This is after a
fresh install on a blank drive on this server."
I having a similar error as above...
Any pointers?
