Title: RE: [ActiveDir] OU/Computer accounts reorganization

Because each site needs different GPOs (SUS server at local site, different desktops, different logon scripts, certain OUs have delegated administration etc...I agree with the "make it simple, see it working better" statement, but i wouldn't certainly give up using key Win2000 AD features for that.

I guess one would also have to ask why not just apply the policies to the sites and not worry about the ou's?  Then you don't have to worry about it now or in the future.

Should have added this part to the last email:

 

Some books that might help:

Nslookup FQDN_of_computer_name would do it.
But now might be a good time to look into the scripting.  It could save you a lot of time and you may have to do this again some time.

 ok...thanks for all replies. Unfortunately i have a basic knowledge of scripting, so it looks like it's going to be a hard job.

Anyway, what would be the best method to achieve this? Get the Ip addresses of the machines from a nslookup or ping, or is there a command/function or whatever to get the ip/site from the active directory?
