I dont have Win2k. But i do remember there was a command-line utility called DNSCMD.EXE, which had a wide range of DNS management functions.

DNSCMD is used to work with dns. but i need someting to disjoin from a domain and join another domain, from cmd so that i can put it in a batch file. i have to disjoin about 50 machines from an old domain to a new domain. (i will need a salary raise if i am to do that manually!!!)

If U join a computer to a new domain, it is automatically disjoined from the previous domain

that doesnt happen in this case. netdom.exe is giving me an error saying the computer is already joined to a domain.

U could find out where in the registry the domain name is loacted, export that key, change it to new domain name; and then import the key on all machines.
