Ntdsutil running error

[Gaurav]

Dear Folks,

When I am trying to run ntdsutil on command prompt it is showing
following error:-

“'ntdsutil' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
Operable program or batch file.”

But this ntdsutil.exe file is at the path %systemroot%/system32/
dllcache & if I go into this path it works successfully.

I want to make this file available at any each prompt despite of this
where ever it is physically saved.

HOw can I do this .....?

Thanks in advance

===============
This is probably because the slashes in your %path% point in the wrong
direction. Anyway, you should not locate your executables in the dllcache
folder. Much better to put it into the System32 folder.

Hello gaurav,

If you type "path" in a command line you get displayed all configured path's
on your machine. Also you can add a new path. If you have ntdsutil added
to c:\windows\system32 and will run it from command line, you need the path
entry "c:\windows\system32", which normally is a default one. If it not exist
you can add it.

Best regards

Are you running this on a DC? What is the purpose of running it? Is the DC
experiencing any errors?
