Using ADSystemInfo causes "Class doesn't support Automation" Error

I am using the ADSystemInfo Object to get Active Directory information during the logon script (VBScript). All users run perfectly and I have no issues with the logon script. I have 2 users that get the following error from the logon script

Line: 182, Char: 1, Error: Class doesn't support Automation: 'GetObject', Code: 800A01AE
Microsoft VB Script run time erro

Line 182 is
Set wshADInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo"

Can anyone assist as I am racking my brain trying to diagnose and resolve this problem

Hi,

The ADSystemInfo object is only supported on clients with W2k or above. Are
the two users on older clients?

If so, you have have to use the WshNetwork object instead to retrieve user
and computer NT names, then use the NameTranslate object to convert the NT
names to Distinguished Names. This will work if the clients have DSClient
installed.

If the clients are NT with DSClient, I believe you can use the
WinNTSystemInfo object, although it also returns NT (NetBIOS) names.

An example logon script that uses the WshNetwork and NameTranslate objects
as described above:

The loop to retrieve the username from the WshNetwork object is only
required on Win9x clients during logon.
