kukris Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hello,I have W2K Pro and would like to change the workgroup via a batch file or script, i.e. from workgroup1 to workgroup2. Is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I believe their is a utility called NETDOM in the Resource Kit that can do this from the command line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kukris Posted March 17, 2005 Author Share Posted March 17, 2005 Unfortunately that tool can be only used for domains, but not for workgroups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kukris Posted March 18, 2005 Author Share Posted March 18, 2005 I found an answer to this in another forum. It works with netdom.exe from the Resource-Kit of Windows NT4, but not with the Resource-Kit of W2K (and probably XP). To change a workgroup, use this command:netdom.exe member /joinworkgroup myworkgroupReplace myworkgroup with your workgroup name. After that you need to logoff.
