Unattended Domain Join and Computer Name

I used to use RIS and we utilized the Directory Services tab of the WDS server properties.  There we set a client naming policy using the variable MC%MAC
I have finally been able to tweak my image unattend file to get the machine to join the domain in a particular OU.  However it ignores the settings I have in the Directory Services tab as far as the naming policy.  I tried to set the same variable
in the computername section of my xml file but it will error out everytime.  If I set a plain static computername in the field it is fine.  Can I not use the MAC variable in that section?  Is there a way I can "tell" it to reference
the naming policy we used in the Directory Services tab?  
This is what I was trying:

</unattend>

OK, so I was able to get the machine to read the computer naming policy settings on the WDS server, but I had to set the unsecurejoin to true and set Computername to just * , and now the CN is being created properly but its not going to the proper OU!  Ah!!!
 I get one thing to work and then it breaks another!  Sooooo, is it possible to have an unsecure join going to an OU?

  • MDT 2012 Windows 7 Deployment Stops At User Account and Computer Name Setup Page

    I was given a sysprepped custom Windows 7 WIM image that was set up by a third party that didn't use MDT to create the WIM.
    I created a task sequence to deploy it, but it never finishes.  After the OS installs and it reboots, it comes up to the white setup page asking for a user name and computer name that looks like this image:
    Is there a setting in MDT that can change that behavior?

    Are you joining the computer to a domain?
    It sounds like MDT did not create the unattend.xml file itself (or is there an unattend file already in the image itself?)
    MDT needs to be able to autologin with the local admin account
    From MDT in your task sequence - OS info - Edit unattend.xml you can check if your unattended file is correct.
    Check what's in there for:
    - computer name in 4 Specialize area - Windows-Shell-Setup_neutral (it should be empty  if you want MDT to handle it).
    - Also i think you need to have in the Specialize section, under Microsoft-Windows-Deployment_neutral - Run Synchronous an EnableAdmin insert
    This will enable the local admin account
    - Also check in phase 7 oobe System in Shell-Setup_neutral
    There should be an autologon with a count of 999
    Check if you have any Local Accounts there.
    Finally read this:
    When I am joining clients to a domain, can I avoid creating a local user
    account on the computer?
    Yes. To do this, create an image unattend file that adds a domain account to the Administrators group. In addition, you must delete the <LocalAccounts> section if it is present in your
    unattend file (simply commenting it out will not work). An example file is below. Note that if domain join fails, Windows Deployment Services will not use the unattend file so you will be able to create a local account. For more information about creating
    unattend files, see Automating Setup.

    I tried opening the unattend.xml from the MDT workbench, but it errors out saying it cannot be done because the captured image is x86.

  • Getting the user name and computer name

    I've been trying to find out how to do this, but can't seem to get it.
    I have an AIR application that needs to get the user's login name, and computer name for verification.  I can't find anywhere to do this.  Is AIR able to get this information? Is there work arounds if there isn't?
    It won't ever be a web app, just an AIR app.

    What I did in Air 2 to accomplish that is the following:
                   public function getHostName():void {
                        if(NativeProcess.isSupported) {
                             var OS:String = Capabilities.os.toLocaleLowerCase();
                             var file:File;
                             if (OS.indexOf('win') > -1) {
                                  //Executable in windows
                                  file = new File('C:\\Windows\\System32\\hostname.exe');
                             } else if (OS.indexOf('mac') > -1 ) {
                                  //Executable in mac
                             } else if (OS.indexOf('linux')) {
                                  //Executable in linux
                             var nativeProcessStartupInfo:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
                             nativeProcessStartupInfo.executable = file;
                             var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
                                  process.addEventListener(NativeProcessExitEvent.EXIT, onExitError);
                                  process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_DATA, onOutput);
                                  process.start(nativeProcessStartupInfo);
                                  process.closeInput();
                   import utls.StringHelper;
                   public function onOutput(event:ProgressEvent):void {
                        var strHelper:StringHelper = new StringHelper();
                        var output:String = event.target.standardOutput.readUTFBytes(event.target.standardOutput.bytesAvailable);
                             output = strHelper.trimBack(output, "\n");
                             output = strHelper.trimBack(output, "\r");
                        trace('"'+output+'"');
    The package that I used is from the manual:
    package utls
         public class StringHelper
              public function StringHelper()
              public function replace(str:String, oldSubStr:String, newSubStr:String):String {
                   return str.split(oldSubStr).join(newSubStr);
              public function trim(str:String, char:String):String {
                   return trimBack(trimFront(str, char), char);
              public function trimFront(str:String, char:String):String {
                   char = stringToCharacter(char);
                   if (str.charAt(0) == char) {
                        str = trimFront(str.substring(1), char);
                   return str;
              public function trimBack(str:String, char:String):String {
                   char = stringToCharacter(char);
                   if (str.charAt(str.length - 1) == char) {
                        str = trimBack(str.substring(0, str.length - 1), char);
                   return str;
              public function stringToCharacter(str:String):String {
                   if (str.length == 1) {
                        return str;
                   return str.slice(0, 1);
    And sorry for the miss topic I just realized that it is on flex topic, but I post it either way it may be useful for anyone

  • Error connecting, tap to retry, it sees my WiFi and computer name but can't connect

    Hi all, I am trying to get Edge Inspect to work on my Windows 7 PC (it did work for me a few times when I had it installed as Shadow when it initally came out)
    I have read through various forum posts. I am also running Mcafee Virusscan/Firewall. 
    In Google Chrome I have the extension installed at the little "In" symbol top right, when I click it it says Adobe Edge Inspect "On", please start the Adobe Edge Inspect Application.
    I open up the lastest version of Edge Inspect (v1.0.393) on either my iPhone or iPad, it shows the name of my WiFi router and shows the name of the computer that is running Google Chrome, it looks like it is searching for a connection (shows spinner) and then it says "Error connecting, tap to retry".
    I have opened up port 7682 in my Mcafee Firewall
    I have shutdown all open programs
    I have tried manually entering in the computer IP address via manual connect
    I have updated chrome extension and ios apps to latest version
    I have tried reinstalling chrome extension
    I have tried at Windows Command prompt "netstat -ano" it doesnt show port 7682 being used, until I open up Google Chrome, then it shows MYCOMPUTER:7682 SYN_SENT, which I checked the PID against and yes it is Google Chrome using 7682
    Any help would be great

    Hi again Mark, still no luck here.
    I also have a Mac in my network so I thought I'd try installing to that to see what would happen, I just installed Adobe Edge Inspect extension onto Google Chrome on that machine and restarted the iOS apps on both iPad and iPhone and they actually didnt see the Mac machine at all, still just shows the PC computer.
    Also did I mention on my iPad I can still see the last time the connection actually worked (when it was called Adobe shadow, on my iPad underneath MYCOMPUTERNAME Error Connecting, tap to retry it has MYCOMPUTERNAME Last Used 24/07/12 8:59PM). Wouldnt have anything to do with a conflict with the old Adobe Shadow or anything would it, I'm pretty sure Adobe Shadow got uninstalled by default anyway, just a thought.
    So I'm not sure if it can be a problem with the Router because nothing has changed with the router since the last time it successfully worked when it was Shadow? I did add the Mac machine to the network since this time, but that machine hasnt been on when I have been doing any of this testing anyway.
    Also in the Edge Inspect in the Chrome browser I do not see any deviced listed, but back on the iOS App I do see the Wifi network and Computer name as discussed, so does this mean its an inbound connection issue or?
    Also sent you router settings via private message etc.

  • Need to the domain name and computer name in offline mode

    Hi,
    I can not able to login to the windows system, the password i am using is correct. But im getting error "the login method using is incorrect, please contact network admin". I forgot the domain name i set to login to the system. Now Currently i
    dont have the recovery/windows7 disks.  I have Unix in my machine as well. so i have mounted the windows7 parition in linux, and trying to find out the computer\domain name.  so please suggest which file i need to search to get the details.
    Thanks,
    Ravi

    Hi Ravi,
    If you want to know more information about domain name, please take a look at the following article.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731265(v=ws.10).aspx
    Based on my research, the computer name and domain name are stored in the registry key.
    We could find computer name in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName.
    And we can find domain name in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Domain.
    Have you ever  joined a domain?
    If yes, please contact the network admin as mentioned.
    And we can type Domain name\Username and then password to login.
    If you haven’t, we could try to type Computer name\username(.\username) and then the password to login the computer.

  • MDT and Computer Name

    I'm looking at trying to keep the computer name when I reimage using WDS 2012.  We name our computers a certain way and would like to keep from having to retype the name over and over when we reimage.  Hopefully someone can help me.  I need
    this to work on existing computers that are being reimaged.  Our naming schema goes XXX-0YYYYY-ARRR.  XXX represents the second quadrant of the ip address it is given by DHCP, 0YYYYY represents and interna fix asset numbering system, and ARRR refers
    to the room location of the computer.
    I know with new computer, I will have to give them a name so I would like to have the field editable when PXE booted into WinPE but just populated on the existing machine name if it had one.

  • Disable domain join unless computer account has first been created

    Anyone know if its possible to configure Active Directory so that a computer cannot be joined to the domain unless the computer account is first created manually

    Hi Meinolf,
    while you are right with a Domain user can join up to 10 Computers to a Domain, that is not exaktly what happened.
    Even if a user may join a new computer, this only and only is possible in case the user is allowed to write to the corresponding OU / Container, where the account needs to be created.
    A join will fail if the user cannot create the computer account object. The statement is not correct in this way from an end (Computer) to end (Computer object) view.
    If you worked with pre-populated Computer objects, the 10 Computer Limit is also obsolete. When you create the object you are (GUI) asked "who can join that Computer to the Domain?". If you are a member of the group put in that Dialog, there is no 10 computer
    limit. You will be able to join as many Computers, as needed.
    The 10 computer limit per Account is only and only valid if you did not prepopulate the object AND you have access to create a new computer account at the default OU for new computers. This is working for AD Windows Server 2003 up to AD DS Windows Server
    2012 R2.

  • Time Machine and computer name change

    I just recently reinstalled the operator system after a computer crash when i did so changed the computer name and now when i go into time machine to restore the settings it only shows up as one sparse disc image.
    i have found that when i can mount it manually but the files are not usable and when i mount it with time machine the history does not appear.

    Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.

    You can use an Applet to do this but you'll need to sign the applet and the user will need to have jre1.3 or greater installed (see Java Plugin).

  • When I start firefox it asks for my name, password and computer name everytime

    Every time I click on the icon to start Firefox, it asks for my email address and password, then asks for my computer name. I have selected Facebook as my home page but it still asks me this when I go into Firefox. It is really aggravating now, can anything be done as it never used to do this before. Has been doing it now for a few weeks. Thank you.

    You need to enter both serial numbers, first the Aperture 3 upgrade number, then the Aperture 2 number.
    If Aperture does not accept the numbers, see:

  • Changing 'main' user and computer name

    Hi everybody!
    I got an older iBook from my sis. I'm trying to remove her stuff and clean it up a bit for my use. Is there a way to change the main user account so the computer isn't in her name anymore? I tried creating a new admin account, but I can't delete the first account. Also I can't change the computer name on the main log in screen. Any suggestions?
    I was thinking about bringing it in to a store. I'm sure they can do it quick fast in a hurry.
    cheers.

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Matt Clifton has given his suggestions here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1076960
    You need to log out and log back in with the new account in order to delete the old one.
    (It really isn't necessary to delete the other account unless you need the hard drive space. You can simply choose to have it automatically log in to your account and not the old one.)
    To change the computer's name go to System Preferences > Sharing and change the computer's name there.

  • Why does the local network and computer name keep changing?

    After upgrading to Yosemit the local network name and computername on my iMAC keep changes link:
    Mycomputer-1
    Mycomputer-2
    Mycomputer-3
    Why?
    I have tried to change it back in sharing and network locations.
    Is this also the reason the my iPhone cannot find my iPhone often cannot find my iMac when I will sync it? Then I have to restart the iPhone and iTunes on the computer. This happens very very often.
    Maybe it also linked to these errors which the log is full of - many every minute:

    I think the is some bug/clash between bonjour and other network protocols. That is only a guess.

    After resetting the computer name and local host name to the correct name without the number I also shotdown my iMac, my AppleTV, my iPhone, my iPad and then rebooted my Airport/Time capsule it seemed to work at least for several days. But yesterday I discovered that my Apple TV now also has changed name to Apple TV (2).
    I logged into iCloud.com to see my devices and here it was really wired. My Apple TV was called Apple TV (2) and my iMac also had (2) after the name. Then I checked it on the iMac but here it was correct! Why can it have one name on the iCloud and another on the computer.
    I restarted both the iMac, Apple TV and Airport Time capsule then everything was correct also on iCloud.com.
    But today the iMac was called the name (2) again on the iMac. And now the local host name also had -2 after the name. It has not always been both names that has changed. That is really wired. And today Wifi was not working on the iMac after wake from sleep. I changed the name back and rebooted again also the Airport Time capsule. Now it is working again.
    The log is still full of this messages:

    The name is not the only problem. Often itunes will not find my iPhone and iPad. Then i need to close iTunes and restart the iPhone and iPad then it works for some time.
    And the iPhone and AppleTV will not always wake the iMac from sleep. I am wondering if the is linked to the changing of name.
    I have seen by googling that it can be related to a sleep proxy problem so it seems like that here is two devices on the net with the same name that is why name is changing, but to know this do not help me to solve the problem. I have also seen all the suggestion to turn almost every services off on the computer, but again I it is not a solution and I have the iMac and devises to use the functionality not to shot everything down. So I do not really understand people saying turn off itunes, turn off blueboth, and turn off this and that.
    Apple must soon come with a real solution. We are really many people have these problem since we upgraded to Yosemite and iOS 8.
    I have also listed some of the iTunes errors from the log below:

  • Hard Drive and Computer Name changes on Network

    We have 3 computers in our office: One G4 and two G5 (one with Panther and one with Leopard).
    There was confusion on the network because all the drive where called « HD MacIntosh ».
    I changed the names of all the computers in SHARING, I manually renamed all the hard drives by selecting the text under the hard drive icons:
    The old G4 has 2 hard drives (New G4, Old G4) and the two other computers' hard drives are called G5 Carole and G5 Stephen.
    Still, when I connect from one computer to another I STILL SEE « HD MACINTOSH » where I should see the new name I gave!!!
    What I am doing wrong?

    Hi pitou-
    Did you try rebooting everything including network hardware?

  • Firewall: allow for AD Group AND computer name

    I am not sure if there is a more specific forum for windows server 2012 R2 datacenter firewall rules; if there is, then I am thankful for a pointer.
    We have to define firewall rules that allow connections to certain ports only if: the user is member of an AD group AND the connection attempt originates from a computer in a list of allowed machines. The AND operator is where I fail to define the rule;
    I can allow AD Group abc to access the ports and I can allow machines x, y and z to access the ports, but I don't know a way to allow connection only if both rules are met: e.g. the user is in AD group abc and uses machine y.
    Is this doable? We would also consider third party tools if that is required, business wants the rule (no matter our arguments against it, e.g. the additional effort to maintain the list of computers).
    Thanks in advance for any hints,
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    Windows Firewall is a built-in, host-based, stateful firewall therefore it can not control user access policy, may you can use TMG as internal firewall to realize that.
