Hello,

Anyone knows a way to identify the Domain Controller which was used to
join a computer to the domain?

In IP ranges that are undefined in Sites and Services (or due to other
infrastructure problems), a computer that wants to join the domain, finds
the most available DC.
Where on the computer itself can I find the DC that was used to join the
domain?

In our environment there are 30+ DCs, I don't want to check each one of
them.
Thx

Wieger
