Please bear in mind the script is for Windows 7 x86 (32Bit) only. If you're running Windows 7 x64 (64Bit) you need to create a slightly modified script using WAIK.

 

I've used this script many times on many domains, so it does work :)

We use a PowerShell script

 

We put a SetupComplete.cmd file in the C:\Windows\Setup\Scripts folder which then runs import.ps1 from the c:\windows\system32\sysprep\ folder the cmd also deletes the file as you don't want to leave any sensitive usernames or passwords on the C: drive jus in case.

 

The script of the import.ps1 You need to change the parts in red to suit your environment.

 

$User = "domain\user"

$Pass = ConvertTo-SecureString "Password" -AsPlainText -Force

$Credentials = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $User,$Pass

add-computer -domainname domainname.local -credential $Credentials

 

If you remove the ComputerName part the xml will wait for computer name as it sets up

 

Hi, I am doing the same thing here. But what I really like to do is to add the computers to a specific OU but I get the following error, wonder if anyone can over look the script or suggest a solution? also posted on technet forums but no reply so far(I will post any updates from there over here)

 

The script is :

$username = "domain\Admin"

$password = ConvertTo-SecureString "password" -AsPlainText -Force

$myCred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential $username, $password

Add-Computer -DomainName domain.com -Credential $mycred -OUPath “OU=OUtest-VMs,OU=OUComputers,DC=domain,DC=com”

 

Output 2 (intentionally made a computer account in AD to check FQDN) skip to Output 1 below:

PS C:\Windows\system32> C:\addcomputer.ps1

Add-Computer : This command cannot be executed on target computer('PC-TEMP2') due to following error: The account already exists.

At C:\addcomputer.ps1:5 char:13

+ Add-Computer <<<< -DomainName domain.com -Credential $mycred -OUPath “OU=OUtest-VMs,OU=OUComputers,DC=domain,DC=com”

+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (PC-TEMP2:String) [Add-Computer], InvalidOperationException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : InvalidOperationException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.AddComputerCommand

 

Output 1 (actual problem) with error : The system cannot find the file specified. what does this mean? note that I changed the PC name, replication is a Bi*** here!

 

PS C:\Windows\system32> C:\addcomputer.ps1

Add-Computer : This command cannot be executed on target computer('PC-TEMP3') due to following error: The system cannot find the file specified.

At C:\addcomputer.ps1:5 char:13

You could just pre-create the Computer Objects in the right OU in the first place. When a workstation is added to the domain with the same name, it's instantly in the right place.

Hey Michael,

 

That's what I'm trying to avoid. Without the -OUpath syntax it will join the machine to domain to an existing computer account but I do not want to pre-create accounts in AD.

 

Running powershell as a administrator, with unrestricted ExecutionPolicy, testing the addcomputer.ps1 manually with the -OUpath syntax and I get the system cannot find the file specified.

 

If there is no solution than I guess I have to do just that :( that brings up the question is -OUpath syntax broken? Has it worked for others out there?

Guess what! my DN path was missing an OU name(confirmed with DSquery...) :p the -OUpath syntax works now, I'm loving it :)

Have you Sysprepped your master image more than three times before capture?

 

When you say have you sysprep'ed your masterimage 3 times what do you mean? running the sysprep /generalize /audit /reboot command, or rebooting while in sysprep mode?

3 times rebooting in sysprep mode
