Folks,

When I run the code specified below, I get the following error. Can anyone
see any obvious error in how the OU is specified? I am running this on the
target DC with an account that is a source domain domain admin.

Error:
====
D:\Gabe\scripts\mignt4domcomp.wsf(30, 5) ADMT.Migration.1: Unable to migrate
computers. Unable to bind to container
'OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=corp,DC=sigma,DC=com'.
Unable to get distinguished name
for
'amer.corp.natinst.com/OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=corp,DC=sigma,DC=com'.
The parameter is incorrect.

Thanks,
Gabe

Sorry, but your script seems to be less than 30 lines long - any idea which
statement this is?

Quote:
ADMT.Migration.1: Unable to migrate
computers. Unable to bind to container

'OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=corp,DC=sigma,DC=com'.


I assume that there is such an OU at corp.sigma.com, but it is hard to tell
from here.

'amer.corp.natinst.com/OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=c

orp,DC=sigma,DC=com'.

I have never used ADMT.Migration, but the above specification does not look
like a valid distinguished name. It also is not clear to me where the
"amer.corp.NATINST.com" is coming from, as it appears nowhere in your code.

The line generating the error is:

objComputerMigration.Migrate admtData, Array("woochay")

The error message should have SIGMA instead of NATINST

Couple of things:

I see that the empty spaces have gone. So the line number is incorrect. The line generating the error is:

objComputerMigration.Migrate admtData, Array("woochay")

The error is:
D:\Gabe\scripts\mignt4comp.wsf(25, 5) ADMT.Migration.1: Unable to migrate computers. Unable to bind to container 'OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=corp,DC=sigma,DC=com'. Unable to get distinguished name for 'amer.corp.sigma.com/OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=corp,DC=sigma,DC=com'. The parameter is incorrect.

Domain FQDN = amer.corp.sigma.com
OU Location = ????
this is what i am not sure how to specify. If i specify a top level OU (like "Computers" or "AMER"), it works. I don't know the syntax to specify a child OU

It says: unable to bind to container:

'OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=corp,DC=sigma,DC=com'

I cannot tell what your OU structure is, but this looks OK, assuming you
have an OU called "Computers" located in an OU called NT4Domain, which, in
turn is located within "AUS", which is located within "AMER".

It also says: Unable to get distinguished name for
'amer.corp.sigma.com/OU=Computers,OU=NT4Domain,OU=AUS,OU=AMER,DC=amer,DC=cor
p,DC=sigma,DC=com'. The parameter is incorrect.

Here, I admit to being just a bit mystified. What appears to the right of
the "/" looks like the distinguished name (and a fully qualified one, at
that) of the sub-sub-sub OU "Computers", i.e. including the domain. What
appears on the left is the FQDN in dns form of the domain. Is the domain
supposed to exist within one of its OU's?

It would appear to me that this "parameter is incorrect". What is it
supposed to represent?

/Al


Anyway, I would be surprized

Apparently, you separate OUs by "/".

so in my code,
OU Location = "AMER/AUS/NT4Domain/Computers"

I wish this was documented somewhere.

I believe that it is documented somewhere. Perhaps it would be better to wish to have seen the documentation ;-)
