Command to view PDC info

[striderida1]

Anyone happen to know a terminal command to view which DC you are bound too? I know in windows there is the “set” command. This is an AD/OD setup and want to make sure im hitting the PDC and not one of our other SDC’s that we are retiring.

Hi striderida1, you can view the preferred Domain controller as set in the AD plug-in by using the dsconfigad -show command in the terminal. It won’t show you which one you’re logged into like the windows %LOGONSERVER% command but may be what you’re looking for.
Cheers
