AccountData specifies account data used when joining a domain.

Note
Use either Provisioning or Credentials to join an account to the domain. The settings in Provisioning will be used to join the account to the domain, if values are entered for both the Provisioning and Credentials settings.

For information about joining a domain using Provisioning, see the MSDN topic, NetJoin.

To generate the AccountData information:

  1. Use the command:

    djoin.exe /provision /domain domainname /machine machinename /savefile filename

    Example:

      Copy Code
    djoin.exe /provision /domain contoso.com /machine machinename /savefile AccountData.txt
    
  2. Copy and paste the contents of AccountData.txt to the answer file.
