The script will be run via batch with this command: start /wait c:WindowsSystem32wscript.exe //I cfad_zum_scriptdj.vbs
Main way
If i connect the client [URL="
by hand to the domain, this works without any error.
Server environment

• 3 Domain controller (Windows Server 2008 R2, ServicePack 1)

Comments
I have tried to leave to OU-Command out of the script, the error msg is the same. User name and password are correct -)
