There are two additional options for you:

 

1)       If you are sysprepping your machines (or using an unattended answer file) XP supports a new parameter, MachineObjectOU, which you can put into the script.

2)       *** I HAVE POSTED A CUSTOM TOOL *** that you can use… it’s raw but quite functional and easy to tweak to your needs:

You can change the default location (with redircomp), but it's a default, not something that can be unique per computer.  If you want to be able to create computer accounts in varying OU's then it's something you'll either have to script (such as with netdom /join /ou)  or you could pre-create the accounts in the proper OU's.  Or you can be stuck doing it manually.  :)

Subject: [ActiveDir] Redirecting PC's into the proper OU

I know you can redirect computer account to a specified OU, using redircomp.  But what if you have multiple Ou's and want the pc to be added to the proper OU with some sort of logic.

 

Does this not exist or is this something that would need to be scripted?  Am I stuck doing this manually?

 

 

 

Thanks
