careless_hxuk Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 A quick and easy question about computer accounts in Active Directory:If I reinstall Windows on a group of computers (resetting all the SIDs on the machines), then reset the computer accounts in Active Directory, can the computers then rejoin the domain under the same name?

dubsdj Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I believe so yes. Im doing an MC course in AD at the moment and I´m pretty sure that what you said is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netman66 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Yes. No problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careless_hxuk Posted April 28, 2009 Author Share Posted April 28, 2009 Thanks. That's how I would expect it to work, but it's always worth checking (especially with Windows) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Shouldn't even need to reset the accounts, just rejoin the machine to the existing account as is. Do it all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
