Another excellent resource for Mac information is the MacEnterprise list at
Penn, as well as the videos from the MacAdmins conference.

Having said that, there are a variety of scripts around the web for binding
to Active Directory and Open Directory, as well as DeployStudio, Automator,
and Casper workflows.

That said, many folks use some variation of the scripts documented on this

Hello All,



What have you found to be a simple, inexpensive automated way to join
Mac's to Active Directory?



Sorry for the cross-posting & adding a bit of clutter to your email box.
