So, we now have a need to run this on one of our computers.  Alas, I am getting errors on both my attempts.  Here are my commands, run on the DC/AD ...



$ net dom renamecomputer -S FRED -U FRED\\LocalAdmin%localPassword newname=FREDDY account=DOMAIN\\Administrator password=domainPassword reboot

Failed to rename machine: Access is denied.



and



$ net dom renamecomputer -S FRED -U DOMAIN\\Administrator%domainPassword newname=FREDDY account=DOMAIN\\Administrator password=domainPassword reboot

Could not connect to server FRED
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_TRUSTED_RELATIONSHIP_FAILURE



What have I done wrong?  Can anyone help me please?

Thanks,
