Nic H Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 HiI am building all computers to the OU container "Workstations" as specified in the RIS server properties. I also have a sub-OU under that called "Laptops". After the build I move all laptop computer accounts into the "Laptops" OU.My problem is then when I try to rebuild a laptop, the CIW complains about duplicate machines and permisions to delete the computer account.I find that the only way I can rebuild the laptop is if I delete the computer account first or move it back into the "Workstations" OU before rebuilding.I have searched everywhere but cannot find info on this. Surely lots of people must have this problem?Also, is there not a way to tell RIS through the CIW or sif file to create laptop computer accounts in one OU and desktops in another?Any ideas?Thanks!

Henkes Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Does the account you use to login with RIS have enough permissions to delete computer objects from the active directory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic H Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 Yes, Like I said, if I move the computer account back to the default OU then it works fine. But it won't work if the account has been moved to another OU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
