-- Create login if it doesn't already exist. if @LoginName is null begin create login [DOM1\DDCSERVER01$] from windows; if @@error = 0 print N'Login [DOM1\DDCSERVER01$] for controller [DOM1\DDCSERVER01$] created'; else raiserror(N'Failed to create login [DOM1\DDCSERVER01$] for controller [DOM1\DDCSERVER01$] (login may already exist but with the wrong SID)', 18, 1); end else print N'Login [' + @LoginName + N'] for controller [DOM1\DDCSERVER01$] already exists'; go
