unfortunately not. I just created another local group called test and tried the following command.
net group test domain1\%computername%$ /ADD /domain it sends me back to the The synatax for this command is: NET GROUP ............................................... Is this not working because of some security changes in Windows 7 / Windows 2008 R2 domain ? But if it was a security issue it would give me an error NETHELPmsg etc.... maybe another utility OR script would do this so I can simply add that script to a task sequence and when it runs .....it will automatically add that computer it is building to a set group in AD ? cheers Jo On 6 May 2010 11:51, James Rankin <[email protected]> wrote: > Try creating your group again but this time create it as a *domain local > group* rather than just a standard security group, I just tested this and > it works > > > On 6 May 2010 11:45, helpdesk UK <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> Hello James >> >> and I am not sure what I am typing incorrectly here but my command is >> >> The comamdn you have suggested will fail as localgroup ? i dont have local >> groups created on any machines I want to only add the %computername% to the >> domain group >> >> so I tried this >> >> net group SSID1 domain1\%computername%$ /ADD /domain >> >> it sends me back to the syntax of this command as it is incomplete.... >> >> The funny thing is I cannot get a net group command working :( >> >> >> cheers >> >> Jo >> >> >> >> On 5 May 2010 17:18, James Rankin <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> You may need to add */domain *onto the end of that command.
