Adding Computer To AD

I've been watching the group posts off and on and am still looking for
a solution to this...

When adding a computer to AD manually you have the option of choosing
a user or group who can add the computer to the domain. It defaults to
Domain Admins on our network.

I would like to be able to create the AD account with a VBS script and
at the same time change the above item to Authenticated Users.

I have found VBS scripts to add the computer and they all work super
but I have yet to find the code to change the domain option.

Any and all assistance willl be appreciated.

Thinking about this after posting my previous msg, if I were to create
an initial computer account in AD with the Authenticated Users as the
group with permission to add it to the domain, if I then copy this
account will the Authenticated Users settings come with the new
instance???
