Offline Domain Join - The new utility Djoin.exe in Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 7

I never try this utitlity but today I was testing this in a new deployment process and Now I say, it is wonderfull, really we can join member servers and workstations from instalation media with Setup /unattend:AutoAttend.XML and Djoin.exe for example:

1. In a domain controller or member of your domain Windows 7 or WIndows 2008 R2, run in Command Prompt:
C:\>Djoin /provision /domain mydomain.loc /machine WorkstationName1 /savefile JoinWorkstationName1.txt
Note: You should be administrative rights to join machines in you domain.

2. In the new workstation or member server run in Command Prompt:
C:\>Djoin /requestODJ /loadfile JoinWorkstationName1.txt /windowspath %SystemRoot% /localos

3. Restart the new machine or run shutdown /r /t 00 if you run a Windows Server Core installation.

Requirements:
  • Windows 7 or Windows 2008 R2.
  • Administrative rights in domain to join computers and adminstrative rights in the new member machine.

Agregar u adicionar equipos, servidores o estaciones de trabajo a un dominio desconectado, fuera de linea o sin conexion a nuestra red es un proceso muy sencillo.
