WOL + Machine Names

[Dean Park]

Hi,

found a script to use the WOL on multiple machines, but need to enter
the machine names in a text file before it will work. This is fine,
but we have around 500 to do!

Is there a way of getting this information from AD, so we don't have
to manually input each machine number??

Thanks

You can use DSQUERY (tip 6820) or NETDOM (tip 5820) in the 'Tips & Tricks' at
