Results logging with add user scripting

[Currivan]

I am using *.cmd scripts to add multiple users to an OU on the domain. In order to keep track of the results, I have added code to each line to redirect the output to a log file using the append operator such as follows:

dsadd user {parameters} >> filename.log

However, the system only reports the successes and not the failures - which I am more concerned about, obviously. Your help is greatly appreciated.

This time, I get to answer my own question thanks to O'Reilly's Windows 2000 Command Reference Guide. It's actually quite simple, and the modified code is as follows:

dsadd user {parameters} >> filename.log 2>&1

You can find more parameters for the append operator, such as error only, in this handy guide.

Cheers!
