Adding a Computer Account to a Group
1. Click *Start*, and then click *Run*.
2. In the *Open* box, type *cmd*.
3. At the command prompt, type the following command:
dsmod group group_dn -addmbr computer_dn
This command uses the following values:
- *group_dn* specifies the distinguished name of the group object to
which you want to add the computer object.
- *computer_dn* specifies the distinguished name of the computer
object to be added to the group. The distinguished name
indicates the folder
location.
When you add a computer to a group, you can assign permissions to all of the
computer accounts in that group, and then filter Group Policy settings on
all accounts in that group.
To view the complete syntax for this command, at a command prompt, type *dsmod
group /?*.

"On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into
the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able
rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such
