Hi all,
I am working on a script to manage the computer's attribute "managed-by" through power shell. I have found the command Set-ADComputer "AAECNBJ003403L" -ManagedBy "dn_path_of_user" which does not seem to be a solution in my ad environment.
In our environment, all the client machines are in one domain (machine.domain.com) and users from different domains (user1.domain.com ; user2.domain.com) logon to these machines ( all domains in same forest ). when I provide the DN path of the users which is "cn=user,dc=user1,dc=domain,dc=com" in the command Set-ADComputer "AAECNBJ003403L" -ManagedBy "dn_path_of_user" I get the error as follows
Identity info provided in the extended attribute: 'ManagedBy' could not be resolved. Reason: 'Cannot find an object with identity: 'cn=user,dc=user1,dc=domain,dc=com under: 'DC=machine,DC=domain,DC=com'.
SO it is searching for the user object in machine.domain.com where the object does not exist. Please tell me if I can specify a user domain name in the command.
