Which is this:


objCommand.CommandText = "LDAP://dc=corp-nj, dc=mrsassociates, dc=com;(&(cn=" & strLocation & "*)(objectClass=Computer));cn;subtree"

Should it be this?


objCommand.CommandText = "<LDAP://dc=corp-nj, dc=mrsassociates, dc=com>;(&(cn=Computers)(objectClass=Computer));cn;subtree"

Here is an example of a canonical name(cn) of a computer

Corp-NJ.mrsassociates.com/Computers/MRSOH0018

Status: offline 		You said the test I suggested worked which means this line is wrong somehow: dc=corp-nj, dc=mrsassociates, dc=com
Change it so it looks more like the test example.

Status: offline 		I am trying this on a batch of computers we got in recently, since this is what is going to be used for. 

I can run this script on my computer, but not the new computers.  Why is that?  I cannot contact the domain?

I get the following error

The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.

Status: offline 		You might have to hard code the domain piece since it isn't on the domain...may even provide alternate credentials.  Just ensure this is correct: dc=corp-nj, dc=mrsassociates, dc=com . You can always echo it out on your machine to verify it. 

Set objRoot = GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE")
strDomain = objRoot.Get("defaultNamingContext")
WScript.Echo strDomain

Alternate credential:
objConnection.Properties("User ID") = "Administrator"
objConnection.Properties("Password") = "+77m5trgJo!"
objConnection.Properties("Encrypt Password") = TRUE
objConnection.Properties("ADSI Flag") = 1

It is joined to the domain, but has not been rebooted yet, that could be the catch

Status: offline 		What if split the script into two scripts.

Script 1 does:

1. disabled firewall
2. removes IPv6
3. Joins the domain

Reboots and runs a new script that does

4. renames the computer based on the last computer name in AD
5. finishes other software installations

Status: offline 		Did some research, and found the runonce.exe command.

I will try splitting the script into 2 scripts, then at the end of script 1, will have it execute the runonce for script #2, will that work?
