a different default domain) when migrating computers

Subject: [ActiveDir] Default Domain



Has anyone tried this?  I got it off of another list I am a part of. 

The default domain name is stored in the DefaultDomainName registry 
value, but no built-in Group Policy setting to control its value. You 
can easily create a custom .adm file that will let you configure the 
default domain for computers that have the GPO applied. To do so, save 
this code as defaultdomain.adm in the C:\windows\inf folder. 

CATEGORY "Logon Settings" 
  KEYNAME "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" 
    POLICY "Default Domain" 
      PART "Default Domain" EDITTEXT 
        VALUENAME "DefaultDomainName" 
      END PART 
    END POLICY 
END CATEGORY 

You can then add this template to an existing or new GPO's Computer 
Configuration section. To do so, select Add/Remove Templates. Click Add 
and select the defaultdomain.adm file. Because this registry subkey 
isn't in a standard, managed portion of the registry, you won't see it 
until you select Filtering under the View menu and clear the "Only show 
policy settings that can be fully managed" check box, as the figure at 
http://list.windowsitpro.com/t?ctl=EA05:2C262 
shows. 
   The new policy will be available under Computer Configuration, 
Administrative Templates, Logon Settings, Default Domain. The policy 
sets the specified domain on computers that receive the policy, as the 
figure at 
http://list.windowsitpro.com/t?ctl=EA08:2C262 
shows. During migrations between domains, this policy saves users from 
having to select a new domain from the drop-down list
