AD Users and computer on XP workstation

[TMPadmin]

I'm sick of logging onto TS to add / change / etc users and such directly on the DC. Can I install AD U&C on my workstation to do this?

Yes? How?
NO? Okay.

Sorry a bit batty today.

Thanks!

Yes, you need to install some administartive toolkit. I believe I got it off of the Windows 2003 server CD in the i38 folder. Wish I had more details for ya

If you find it, can you let me know the filename? I've had to install these tools several times and everytime I forget to write down the instructions on how to find it 🙂. Knowing the filename would help me out.

It's an EXE , but I can recall the rest of the file name. hope you find it!

Can't find it. Looked at just about every exe on the cd. 2K3 right?

It's the adminpak.msi on the 2003 server cd in the i386 directory.

If you download it off microsoft's website it's adminpak.exe (a self executing zip that expands to adminpak.msi and a readme).

I have never been able to find it on the MS site, but that's a good thing to know! My orginial post
was about the .msi.

It's also in the system32 directory of every server, so if you don't have a CD handy you can just run it from there.
