The key to that is to know what site the machine is part of and what OU they
therefore belong in.  A script might be useful if it first looks up their
site information and then moves them to the appropriate OU.  The logic would
be to look at the machine account, find the corresponding address, correlate
to the site it belongs to, and move it else leave it if appropriate. That
would likely be resource intensive, but it's a one-time app anyway.

Subject: [ActiveDir] OU/Computer accounts reorganization

Good morning,
We work in a native windows 2000 AD Architecture, with a single domain and 4
sites.
Computer accounts have been organized into OUs according to which site they
belong to.
Unfortunately the reorganization wasn't performed well. We have cases of
machines that were placed in the wrong Ous with subsequent problems with
group policies which, in many cases, are linked to the Organizational units.

There are Thousands of Pc accounts, unfortunately machine names do not help
to determine their site.

Anybody might want to suggest the best strategy to reorganize the PC
accounts (maybe a script, or a commercial tool)?

Thanks
