WIM Imaging system are not getting added to domain
Using WIM images I'm seeing objects that do not get added to the domain once they are remove if reimaging system. I do however have used the joindomain scripted, anwser file.
But we have noticed new systems get added without any issues just reimaged systems that have the issues.
We do remove the object from AD or do a dsquery to find the system but no results on a reimage.
I have used netbios name, etc. etc.
Best of Luck! :)

image machines with a local autologin in the sysprep ans files then join the machine to the domain and autologin it in with post script commands

I also generally suggest the postinstall task method of entering the domain. I have seen reliability issues with using the Sysprep UnattendJoin method of joining the domain. - andrew_lubchansky 11 years ago
Are the computer accounts being moved to a different OU in AD after new systems are imaged? joindomain will probably try to place the machine in the default OU (e.g. computers) but fail if the machine GUID exists in another OU (RIS used to fail with this).
thanks I got it fixed. Using both the answer file and vbs (kace) scripted it works just fine. wierd Microsoft voodoo.
