How do I find my particular computer in NetAdmin32 ?

Well,  this isn't Windoze, so we don't have silly garbage like having to add individual computers to the NDS tree. That's kinda ridiculous, don't you agree? Your PC is a client machine, not a server, so why does NDS need to create an object for it?

About the only time you would need to do this is if you are using ZENworks to manage your PCs - for example, if you want to do Remote Control, unattended OS installation, application healing, remote inventory...all sortsa things, most of which can't be done with SMS (try installing an application to anything but C: using SMS - can do it fine in ZENworks).

I see workstations in the tree ..how do those get htere aren't they registered ?

Workstations? Or Workstation Policy Objects?

If you really are seeing Workstation objects, then you must be using ZENworks. Do you know what version?

Don't use NETADMIN. Use either NWADMN32 or ConsoleOne. In order to manipulate Workstation objects, you must have the proper Snap-Ins installed in the tool you're using.

Its been awhile since I did workstation import with ZEN. I'll have to go look some stuff up.

not using zenworks just trying to figure out what this little pictures of workstations represent

I see the tree container..the groups the users the print ques, the print servers etc. and a bunch of workstations blue screens

going home now see you tomorrow maybe :^)

I'm not sure those are workstations. When you open them, what is the object type?

There used to be a "computer" object, IIRC, but I don't know that it was ever used for anything useful.

There are little workstation pictures for workstation objects, which means ZENworks.  There are little workstation pictures for workstation policy objects.  Again, that means ZENworks.

dorgunr, if you have ZEN in your environment, and you're not using it, you're wasting a valuable resource, and scrapping NetWare AND ZENworks for Win2K3 is even more questionable a business choice.

I think you could show dorgunr warnings from Dept. of Homeland Security and CERT not to use IE, and he'd still happily load it on his workstations AND servers....

You can also see workstation like objects with NDS for NT (or whatever it is called these days).

Thanks..........:^)
