Moving an AD user account from one domain to another within same forest

Solution 1:

Having just tested it, I can vouch for the fact that Move-ADObject can move objects between domains. The syntax you need is as follows:

Move-ADObject -Identity "CN=Test Move,OU=SourceOU,DC=Domain,DC=suffix" -TargetPath "OU=Test,DC=child,DC=Domain,DC=suffix" -TargetServer "Target-Domain-RID-master" -Server "Local-Domain-RID-master"

This moved a user from the forest root to a child domain.
