    I have another issue, when i query the inactive computers from 4 weeks, the result is not real. We have a total of 1652 computers registered in our domain, where almost 300 doesnt exist anymore, so the result should be something like that, but i only get 71 machines.

    The query im using is the next one:

    dsquery computer "dc=gt, dc=domain, dc=corp" -inactive 5

    and this one too:

    dsquery computer -inactive 5

    The result is the same, and i dont get a correct

    We changed the domain functional level to 2003 native almost 4 months ago

    The best tool would be using oldcmp(downloaded from Joe's site) from Joe & its free.

    c:\OldCmp.exe -report -age 28 >>comp.csv

    What do you mean by “Active computers on the last 4 weeks” ?  Recently joined computers?

    You can query all enabled computers using the following command:

    dsquery computer OU=Computers, DC=SAN,DC=com | dsget computer -dn -disabled | find  /i " no"

    Or you can use Joe’s OldCmp
