I try to join a domain (win 2008R2 DC) using the command net ads join -Udomadmin%dompass createcomputer=Computers and it fails with the following error message: Failed to join domain: failed to precreate account in ou (null): Out of memory if I perform the command without specifying the OU (i.e. net ads join -Udomadmin%dompass then it succeeds and works fine.
