Performing an Offline Domain Join – AD DS

by Samuel Mitchell, posted in Microsoft, windows, Windows server

Provisioning a offline domain joined file for a computer:

  1. Logon to a writeable Domain Controller
  2. Open the command prompt (cmd)
  3. Use command:

Djoin /provision /domain <mydomain.com> /machine <computername> /savefile <filename.txt> /machineou <Computers> /dcname <DC1> /reuse

Joining a computer to the Domain offline:

Djoin /requestodj /loadfile <filename.txt> /windowspath <%windir%> /localos

The computer will restart and when it is up, the computer is on the domain.
