#120811 - 2004-06-08 04:45 PM Add computer to a group
sliver sliver Getting the hang of it Registered: 2002-09-05 Posts: 94	Using kix and adsi to try to add a AD computer to an AD group in the same domain. Searched the forums and cannot seem to find anything....tried running the following code but can't seem to get it to work. Code: $pcname="MyComputer" ;Check PC exists in AD $PC = GetObject("WinNT://MyDomain/$pcname") ;If Exist add to group If $error=0 $oGroup = ("WinNT://MyDomain/MyGroup,group") $oGroup.Add ("WinNT://MyDomain/$pcname") $oGroup.Setinfo EndIf Anyone have any idea what is wrong with the above. Thanks,

Secondly, does not the computer name always end with a dollar ($) sign? _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

The WinNT-name for a computer ends with a dollar-sign as statet by Les
(Pre Windows 200 logon Name)

If the pc and group exists, this will work

Code:


$pcname = "MyComputer"

$Group = "Mygroup"



$oPC = GetObject("WinNT://" + @Domain+ "/" + $pcname + "$$") ; Dollarsign appended to pcname



;If Exist add to group

If VarType($oPC) = 9

	$oGroup = GetObject("WinNT://" + @Domain + "/" + $Group + ",group")

	If VarType($oGroup) = 9

		$oGroup.Add($oPC.adspath)

	EndIf

EndIf

Borrowing from some VBS I came across: objComputer.Put "sAMAccountName", strComputer & "$" _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.
