Scripting

I got this script from another thread however I think that thread may now be "dead" so I'm posting here for help... Basically this script should retrieve a list of local admins on pc's in the specified OU.


When I try to run it I get the following message
(5,1) (null): A referral was returned from the server

Any ideas?

Computers are in the default COmputers OU, domain is napierbrown.co.uk.

Any help much appreciated!.
