[computer account expiration in AD?]

You can automate the process using dsquery and dsrm. Run from the command prompt

dsquery computer  -inactive X >InactComps.txt

where X is the number of weeks of inactivty you want to check for. After you check this file place a ";" at the end of each line using search and replace. Then run the following command line to delete them.

for /f "delims=;" %i in (InactComps.txt) do dsrm -noprompt %i

This same procedure can also be used for users; just replace computer with user and you get a similar list of inactive users.

when i tried to exicute the first code i got the foloowing output from the cmd:

C:\Documents and Settings\administrator>DSQUERY COMPUTER -INACTIVE 4 >INACTAOMPS
.TXT
dsquery failed:The parameter is incorrect.:Windows could not run this query beca
use you are connected to a domain that does not support this query.
type dsquery /? for help.
