Specifies if the computer account is disabled for logon (yes) or not (no).

Connects a computer to a remote server or domain that you specify. By default, dsmod connects the computer to the domain controller in the logon domain.

-u <UserName>

• user name (for example, Linda)
  
  
• domain\user name (for example, widgets\Linda)
  
  
• user principal name (UPN) (for example, Linda@widgets.contoso.com)
  
  

-p {<Password> | *}

Specifies to use either a password or an asterisk (*) to log on to a remote server. If you type *, dsmod prompts you for a password.

-c

-q

Suppresses all output to standard output (quiet mode).
