This is an optional task.

The Windows SBS Console displays Active Directory Domain Service (AD DS) computer objects that are in or nested in the Windows SBS 2008 default Organizational Unit (OU), OU=<DomainName>\MyBusiness\Computers\SBSComputers.

  2. In the Users Account Control dialog box, click Continue.

  3. In the navigation pane, expand <DomainName>, and then expand the Computers container or the container where the computer objects are located.

  4. Expand the MyBusiness container, expand the Computers container, and then expand the SBSComputers container.

  5. Drag and drop the computer objects from their current location to the SBSComputers container, and then click Yes in the warning dialog box.

  6. When you finish moving the computer objects, close Active Directory Users and Computer.

  7. Open the Windows SBS Console.

  8. In the navigation bar, click the Network tab, and then click Computers.

  9. Verify that all of the computers on your network are displayed.
