A portion of a script I am writing needs to check which OU the computer object is in prior to proceeding. Originally I used DSQUERY with a loop reading the Stdout data (example shown below). But on occassion it will not find the object which i know is there and have tested a manual dsquery query and it worked fine. I believe i should probably be using the AD.au3 functions but not sure which one to use. What I am trying to accomplish is to get the OU structure the computer object resides in. I then compare it to strings to determine next steps. Here is the dssquery portion of this script to show what I was using before. ;##### Checks OU ##### $OU_Check = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & "c:FOLDERdsquery computer -name " & @ComputerName & " -d DOMAIN", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, 8) $loop = "0" While 1 $loop = Execute($loop + "1") $OU_Line = StdoutRead($OU_Check) If StringInStr($OU_Line, @ComputerName) > 0 Then _Logging("OU Check - OU Found") ExitLoop ElseIf $loop = "1000000" Then _Logging("OU Check - Computer object not found.") $OU_Line = "" ExitLoop EndIf Wend
