Automatic Workstation Registration

[natesin]

Hello.

I am looking for a way to automatically register workstations in the NDS tree. When the get registered manually they seem not to keep their registration and we then have to go around to all the workstations and manually unregister and re-register them. This gets quite bothersome.

Is there any way to automate this process?

Any help greatly appreciated.

TIA

What version of ZENworks is this?
Normally zenworks only needs to contact the import process the first time(zenwsimport) after that as long as it can contact the workstation object in NDS it doesn't need to contact the import service.

Although it is usually good to make it so that the workstation can also find the import service.
Either via a hosts file, dns, or registry.
If you are using ZFD4x then here is a good document on workstation registration.
