Adding a computer account with GUID with 2008 RSAT

[chiners_68]

Ive just installed the RSAT tools & cannot find how to add a computer account with GUID. is it possible?

Currently domain is 2003 & the Admin tools in 2003 lets you add computer with GUID. Surely 2008 tools should let you do the same.

went through this process & it works on RASAT for windows 7. i can now add my GUID's.

Install RSAT on Windows 7 Beta

Add the feature 'Windows Deployment Services Tools' on a Windows Server 2008 Full Installation, installed with the same architecture (x64 / x86) and same language.

Copy the following files from the Windows Server 2008 box to the exact same locations on your Windows 7 beta box (assuming both are installed in English):

%systemroot%\system32\imadmui.dll

%systemroot%\system32\EN-US\imadmui.dll.mui

Register the dll using the following command as an administrator (Remember UAC):

regsvr32 imadmui.dll

run Active directory users & Computers & you will now be able to add a computer account with GUID.
