The following is created using the script located at https://www.wolftech.ncsu.edu/pgmurphy/phpAD/create_departmental_ou.php. Please notice the Manual Steps at the end.

Default Setup

Organizational Units

OU Description
<Root OU> The departmental root OU is the top level OU delegated to the department or college. This OU should be named using the organization's common abbreviation. For example, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering uses the abbreviation, ECE, so its root OU should be named ECE.


This OU should be placed under the NCSU OU hierarchy corresponding to its place within NCSU's organizational hierarchy. For example, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is part of the College of Engineering, so the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering's OU should be created under the College of Engineering's OU.


The managedBy property should be set to the primary OU Admin.

Users

User Description
<Root OU>\Departmental Users\OU Admins\<unityid>.admin Create an Administrator account for each desired IT staff member in the department. The account should be created in the <Root OU>\Departmental Users\OU Admins OU. These accounts will be given Administrator priveleges in the departmental OU and local administrator on all computers in the departmental OU.

Groups

Group Description
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-ACS Users Members are given read access to the ACS Q drive.
A GPO (NCSU-ACS Users) is linked at the People OU and is filtered to the NCSU-ACS Users group to automatically mount the Q drive. This group is a member of NCSU-ACS Users. Only staff who need access to the ACS Q Drive should be members of this group.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Allow RIS Allows members to install computers using Remote Installation Services (RIS)
A GPO (Domain-Allow RIS) is linked to the domain root and filtered to the NCSU-Allow RIS group to allow members of this group to use RIS to reinstall computers. This group is a member of NCSU-Allow RIS.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Computer Admins Members of this group have Administrator priveleges on all <Root OU> computers.
This group is a member of the local Administrators group on all computers in the <Root OU> OU. Members of this group have Administrator priveleges on all <Root OU> computers, but no special domain priveleges. <Root OU>-OU Admins is a member of this group.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Computer Migrators Members of this group have the ability to join computers to the domain.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Computers This group contains all computers under the <Root OU> OU.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Desktops This group contains all desktop computers under the <Root OU> OU.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Enable Remote Assistance Enables Unsolicited Remote Assistance on member computers.
A GPO (<Root OU>-Enable Remote Assistance) is linked at the <Root OU> OU and filtered to this group that enables Unsolicited Remote Assistance on all members of this group.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Enable Remote Desktop Enables Remote Desktop on member computers.
A GPO (<Root OU>-Enable Remote Desktop) is linked at the <Root OU> OU and filtered to this group that enables Remote Desktop on all members of this group.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-Laptops This group contains all laptop computers under the <Root OU> OU.
<Root OU>\<Root OU>-OU Admins This group is delegated Full access to the <Root OU> OU.

Organizational Units

OU Description
<Root OU> The departmental root OU is the top level OU delegated to the department or college. This OU should be named using the organization's common abbreviation. For example, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering uses the abbreviation, ECE, so its root OU should be named ECE.

This OU should be placed under the NCSU OU hierarchy corresponding to its place within NCSU's organizational hierarchy. For example, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is part of the College of Engineering, so the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering's OU should be created under the College of Engineering's OU.
