Computer Migration - ADMT vs VB Script?

can explain difference between moving computer account 1 domain using admt vs. vbscript such following?   objou.movehere "ldap://cn=computer01,cn=users,dc=fabrikam,dc=com", _ vbnullstring   you can move computer account using vbscript or netdom command. if need maintain local user profile on workstation or re-acl resources on workstation, need use migration tools admt. you can achieve these thought script admt easier.   what trying accomplish?   just move computers domain?   not concerned user’s profile? don’t need use migration tool.   santhosh sivarajan | mcts, mcse (w2k3/w2k/nt4), mcsa (w2k3/w2k/msg), ccna, network+ houston, tx http://blogs.sivarajan.com/ http://publications.sivarajan.com/ posting provided "as is" no warranties, , confers no rights.
