Set domain user account as local admin TS

[Johnson]

Hi.

 

I would like help with my Task Sequence (it's one of my last step)

 

In my task sequence I add the computer to our domain (successfully) and I want to add a "domain user account" (e.g mydomain\ed) to the Administrator Group on the computer that i deploy. So do anyone know if I can create a vbs script, or something similar, to get an prompt where I can type in the username?

 

Thanks in advanced.

You could use something like net user, see also: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/251394

Thanks Peter.

 

I did find a "semi-solution" in that page. Created a bat with "net localgroup administrators "mydomain\domain users" /add" but then I manually need to remove "domain users" and add the "username" when I have logged in to Windows.

 

The perfect solution for me would be a prompt where I can typ in the username which would be added to localgroup Administrator

Do you or anyone else have an idea if it's even possible?

Set net = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")

local = net.ComputerName

DomainName = "DOMAINNAME"

UserAccount = "USERNAME/GROUPNAME"

strComputer = "."

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _

& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

set colOperatingSystems = objWMIService.ExecQuery _

("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem")

For Each objOperatingSystem in colOperatingSystems

'GERMAN OS

If objOperatingSystem.OSLanguage = "1031" Then

set group = GetObject("WinNT://"& local &"/Administratoren")

End If

'ENGLISH OS

If objOperatingSystem.OSLanguage = "1033" Then

set group = GetObject("WinNT://"& local &"/Administrators")

End If

Next

on error resume next

group.Add "WinNT://"& DomainName &"/"& UserAccount &""

 

 

This script works pretty fine. Just make sure to run it after Domain Join. You may probably cut the language selection part.
