I'm having trouble adding computers to my domain. When I try to add the computer, I right click on the OU and click new, but I do not see the option to create a new computer. Just a printer. It is my understanding that I'm supposed to see Users, Computer, Printers, Groups....ect. Does anyone know how I could get this all to populate? I'm a global admin. I should have these rights.

Log in as local account on the machine in question right click my computer then select properties then network then properties again type in the required information and your done :D
