Using NetDom.exe on NT 4

[Zodiac]

Hi all,

I want to add some NT 4 machines to our AD domain using NetDom.exe. I also
want to computer to be placed in a different OU depending on what is chosen
at the beginning of the inst allation.

I see there is an option netdom 2.0 to specify an OU but it looks like this
version doesn't work on NT4. Is this right?

Is there a tool achive this on NT 4...

thks,

Z.

Correct.
"When joining a machine running Windows NT version 4 or before to the domain
the operation is not transacted. Thus, a failure during the operation could
leave the machine in an undetermined state with respect to the domain it is
joined to."

Is there a tool achive this on NT 4...

Not that I know of.
