We have a Windows 2003 domain. I read some place how to change the default
location that a computer is placed when you add it the the domain. Can
someone point me in the right direction?


TIA,


Clayton
 
Nope, it's a change that's only allowed in Windows 2003 Native domain.
 
Thanks Todd,

That's what I was looking for and it worked just fine!

Gux,

About the only way that I know to do this in a WIN2000 environment is to use
an unattended installation where you specify the location of the computer
account object in the 'answer file'. This is a rather nice way to do
things......However, not everyone likes to do unattended installations.

I also like RIS, but not sure that you can accomplish this via RIS.
