  • Article

5/10/2007

You can manually join your run-time image to a domain by first enabling domain participation in your run-time image, and then by using the Control Panel after the First Boot Agent (FBA) phase completes. You enable domain participation by adding the Domain Participation macro component to your run-time image in Target Designer.

To manually join a domain

  1. In Target Designer, add the following components to your run-time image:

    • Domain Participation
    • Windows Logon
    • System Control Panel

  2. Check dependencies and build the run-time image.

  3. Deploy the run-time image and allow FBA to complete.

  4. Log on to the system as Administrator.

  5. In Control Panel, click the system icon. From a command prompt, type sysdm.cpl. The System Properties dialog box appears.

  6. On the Computer Name tab, choose Change.

  7. Choose the Domain radio button, and in the Domain field, type the name of your domain. Then choose OK.

  8. When you are prompted for user authentication, type the name and password of the account on the domain.

  9. After your run-time image successfully joins the domain, restart your system.

The system is now part of the domain.
