domain join with unattend.xml failed

Hi All,

I am failed to join to domain with Sysprep unattend.xml.

Here is part of it.

It didn't worked. Even if I used the Default Admin user credentials.

Hi Malik,

According to your description,you used Unsecure domain join.

Please upload %WINDIR%\Panther\Unattendgc\setupact.log so that we can help you analyze the issue.

Meanwhile,I would like to share the following articles with you:

Note: I highly recommend you use SkyDrive to upload collected files and to post screen shots/pictures. Although you might not be used to it, SkyDrive features a lot of free advanced functionality around file storage capacity, sharing, privacy, and collaboration:

Hi,

I appreciate your support, I have removed the UnSecureJoin and tested, failed .

Here is the link to the files: http://sdrv.ms/1bcC7bY

Under the debug dir, I cant see netsetup.log but I have copied the whole dir anyway.

Is there a special reason you are using the MachinePassword setting? If you remove it from the unattend file that you posted, and let the domain join happen without that setting, does it work then? The MachinePassword article on TechNet states that 'This setting is only valid if UnsecureJoin is set to true. This is also mentioned in the setuperr.log file:
[DJOIN.EXE] Unattended Join: Passing MachinePassword requires explicitly setting UnsecureJoin
[DJOIN.EXE] Unattended Join: Failed to load all required input parameters, error occured processing [MachinePassword]: 0x57

Hope this helps,

Hi David,

Thanks for reply, I will remove MachinePassword and see what happen.

There was not special reason, I was just following the MS Example and that included MachinePassword. And at that time unsecurejoin was TRUE.
(in other words, have tested with and without unsecure join).

Will get back after removing MachinePas

Hi and Thanks for reply.

Now I have removed the MachinePassword + UnsecureJoin to False.

..... a little bit improvement, now I can see Ctrl+Alt+Del to login to domain.

Tried to login to domain but received the following message:

The security Database on the server doesn't have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship.

You can see the new unattend file + logs at : http://sdrv.ms/LqmCGg
(Logs are collected after login to PC as local user NOT domain user since I was not able to join to domain)
