Keywords: Adding a Machine to an AD Domain
So I guess my question is this: If I use the script from the TechSupport site, where am I when the script finishes? I would have a new object on the AD server, but what is the status of my local machine? What do I need to do to it to make it believe its part of the domain?
A lot of things happen when a computer joins a domain; Services are started, GUID's get assigned, local password accounts are created and a lot more. Most of this goes on on the client side.
There is an excellent example in the tech support database that shows you how to perform the client side of the task programmatically. See: Article:W15186 to find it.
