kcdinga Posted June 3, 2010 Report post Posted June 3, 2010 I apologize if this has been talked about, but I have searched around quite a bit and have not found the answer I am looking for. Is there a way to have the machine join the domain using an existing object in AD? Here is the network portion of the task sequence I am using: 1. Migrating from Windows XP to Windows 7 using SCCM 2007 sp2 OSD 2. Starting the process from an advertised task sequence on the machine to be refreshed 3. Apply Network Settings - Join a Domain: premconf.com Domain OU: LDAP://OU=New Builds,OU=Premiere Computers,DC=premconf,DC=com Account: domain account we use to join machine to domain. I assume this is happening because I am specifying the OU...I did see a post on this site that talked about using a variable for the Domain OU, but was unsure if that would fix this issue. Any help is greatly appreciated. KCDINGA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter van der Woude Posted June 4, 2010 Report post Posted June 4, 2010 When a computer object already excists in the AD, it will stay where it was during the deployment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcdinga Posted June 4, 2010 Report post Posted June 4, 2010 When a computer object already excists in the AD, it will stay where it was during the deployment. So even though I have a specific OU selected in the network settings, it will override if it sees an object in a different OU?
