PCNFCFG deleteTarget /N:name & Error deleting the target

 

pcnscfg list shows a target which is wrong but cannot be changed or deleted.

Error message from pcnscfg: Error deleting the target. The target was not found.

This target listed causes PCNS to target this server to sent the passwords to but it can't find it and gives me a 6025 error in eventviewer.

Open ADSIEDIT.MSC

Open the domain, select new Query

Name the query, the query string is ObjectClass=MS-MIIS-PCNS-Target

Find the target, right click and delete.

Restart PCNS and try again.
