Just upgraded MDT to deploy Windows 10 1903 and had a successful test deployment. Soon, will migrate the MDT server from 2012 R2 to 2019.

My biggest annoyance so far is that LinkedIn itself shows me jobs for stuff like Walmart Associate

Do you have the word "associate" in your resume?

Lol, well I do, I guess I should have gone for the full MCSE after all. But it seems to me that there are so few LinkedIn job postings in a 200km radius of my location that they just list everything.

lol

@JasGot Wouldn't that require me to specify the DN of the computer object every time?

I pre-ordered the Note 10+ in 512GB (upgrading from an S8+)

Mapped network drives? Activesync device?

You can also checkout Netwrix AD lockout examiner.

Used it in the past and found it was usually those two.

dsmod group

Looks like this requires RSAT too.

Don't think so. At least these commands work on my workstation and server without RSAT installed.

Hmm. I get unrecognized command or whatever the error is when it doesn't know what it is.

And this will get you the full CN name:

dsquery computer domainroot -name %computername%

returns

"CN=JASON-I7,OU=Employee Computers,DC=abc,DC=local"

Thanks. I will work on stringing these together.

net localgroup "DomainLaptopsWiFi" %computername%$ /add /domain

Same error.

Using Add-ADGroupMember doesn't work?

It does, if I want to manually run it from my workstation. Add-ADGroupmember requires RSAT to be installed on the system running the command.

Net localgroup DomainLaptopsWiFi %computername%$ /add /DOMAIN

Literally using the word "DOMAIN" is what is needed to get it to connect to the domain controllers, as it shows that it connected to the DC for my domain. However, I am still getting the local group does not exist error.

The request will be processed at a domain controller for domain mydomain.local.

System error 1376 has occurred.

The specified local group does not exist.

I get "The specified local group does not exist." when I try to run

Net localgroup DomainLaptopsWiFi domain.local %computername%$ /ADD

or

Net localgroup DomainLaptopsWiFi domain.local\%computername%$ /ADD

This works on Windows 10 (1703, 1809, 1903), Server 2016 (1607), Server 2012 R2 and Server 2008 R2.

Tor is another option. Proxies are already out there.

Lots of guides on setting it up to run multiple browsers from different IPs. We did it years ago for a project and it was perfect. Took a few minutes to setup, but was perfect for the task.

There's even a bash script to do all the setup for you. (Not on Windows, of course)

Thanks. This has been up and running via squid on Fedora for several months and works really well.

What OS?

This works on Windows 10 (1703, 1809, 1903), Server 2016 (1607), Server 2012 R2 and Server 2008 R2.

@wrx7m %computername%

lol - Don't know why I didn't think of that. Over-complicating it, I guess. Thanks

@JasGot said in Any Way to Automate Adding a New Computer to an AD Group?:

@wrx7m We use Net and NetDom to automate most tasks like this.

Any idea on how to get it to query the system for the hostname and use it? Otherwise, it looks like I would have to run this manually.

@JasGot said in Any Way to Automate Adding a Computer to an AD Group?:

Net localgroup <group> <domain name><computer name>$ /ADD

Localgroup does not imply the local group on the workstation, that is determined by whether you have a domain name\ in front of the computer name

Thanks. I will try that out.

I want to be able to automatically add new laptops to an AD group that will allow them access to the wifi. I haven't found a way that works.

I tried a PowerShell script in an MDT task sequence during deployment, but couldn't get it to run correctly. I was also going to try to use PowerShell in a PDQ Deploy package, but that requires RSAT to be installed on the target system.

Is there a way to have a GPO add the computer to a group when it is located in a specific OU? Or any other suggestions on how to automate this?
TIA

Update2-

I got the above Chrome shortcuts working using a GPO with GPP, as shown in my other post-
