  • 1.  Failed to join domain ****: Access is denied

    Posted Nov 06, 2007 01:04 PM
    Hi, I'm testing new Ghost Suite.
    The following error: "Failed to join domain ****: Access is denied" occurs when I run a configuration task (that change pc name and add pc to domain). The task change de pc name but it doesn't add pc to domain.

    In console, I view the Active Domain and I select container in AD.

    How I resolve this problem?

    thanks

    When you add a domain to the "Supported Domains List" in the console, what happens is this:

    - the configuration server creates a user account in the domain for it to use later,
    - this account is given the "Add Machine Accounts to Domain" right, and
    - this account is given permission to read and write objects in the Computers container of the domain

    However, it isn't given any additional permissions at all; if you want to let the console be allowed to put machines into other OU's, you have to give the account the console uses read and write permission on the OU.
