Deleting a computer account in AD

I have a machine that is off the network. I have deleted the computer account from the AD and there is no entry in DNS. When I add a new machine with the same hostname it's saying this computer name already exist in the domain. How do I totally remove the computer name from the AD so I can add it again on a different machine

Was the machine a workstation?

I am assuming that your attempt to reuse the name exceeded the time neccessary to replicate the deletion throughout the domain.

Another thought. If your boxes use Netbios over tcpip, perhaps the netbios name is floating around somewhere in cache, etc.
