Am I missing something?
The error seems perfectly explicit:

This command cannot be used on the machine where you are.
Go to the domain controller machine and perform it.

Or, on the Domain Controller, use the GUI called
Active Directory Users and Computers rather than the command line.

It's also possible to remotely administer the domain, but let's keep this
simple...

You do have a domain, yes?

Yes the network is on a domain. What's involved in remotely administering the
domain?

figured it out
