Yea it was a long night last night. I just realized after I changed it from quick prep to sysprep the computers are being reconfigured but not joined to the domain.
I setup sysprep through the vmware vcenter client. It seemed pretty straight forward and not much I could mess up. Not sure why it is not joining them to the domain. The template is part of the domain.
Guess I am on to figuring out that issue now.
