AD 2012 issue with deleted users still reside in the directory

-

hi,

let me start ad setup have: ws 2012 (primary dc), ws2003 (secondary), 2 x 2008r2 dcs.

i had child ou (test) in 1 of root ous (sales users) , trying move test ou root out of sales users dragging , dropping it. release mouse button drop ou received message needed confirm operation. did both test , sales users disappeared. however, sales users still stayed in root directory without regular icon , wasn't able access neither delete it. time after sales users ou disappeared well, hoping recreate , start creating users. replication worked fine, because realized have "ghost" folder , users tried login other dcs have corrupted folder.

i created ou, when try recreate users same names it's giving me following error: "windows cannot create new users object because pre-windows 2000 logon name "user's name" in use. select name, , try again." users still able login using domain names , passwords, none of them can found.

any advice appreciated. goal delete users, fix ad structure , recreate them again.

thank you,

alex
