I mean I created the computer "objects" in ADU&C. I just joined another computer to the domain using the Network Identification wizard and it made another "object" in the Computers container, despite a computer object already existing in the OU structure. It's odd. I'm not sure which one should be in the OU in order to apply GPO's to machines. I'm going to try disabling some of the objects to see which ones are actually needed next week. -- Neil Bullock, ICT Technician Brayton College, Doncaster Road, Selby, North Yorkshire, YO8 9BU http://www.braytoncollege.org.uk Neil. ******************************************************** This Weeks Sponsor StressedPuppy.com Games Feeling stressed out?
