Using the command line

Since Windows 2000 Server, a command-line tool has been available to modify objects, including OUs: dsmod.exe. Unfortunately, for OUs, it can only be used to change the description.

Run the following command line on a domain controller or any domain-joined Windows or Windows Server installation with the RSAT for Active Directory Domain Services installed:

dsmod.exe ou "OU=Finance,DC=LucernPub,DC=com" -desc "New description"
