Sequential users in active directory

[justcgi]

Hello,

How can I add sequential users in active directory
(like: frank1, frank2, frank3… frank99,
frank100), with only one step,
without adding them one by one?
thanks,

You could use a VBS script, just create a loop for something like this, and amend the icount into the username value.

Set oRoot = GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE")
Set oDomain = GetObject("LDAP://" & oRoot.Get("defaultNamingContext"))
Set oOU = oDomain.Create("organisationalUnit", "ou=AutomaticIDUsers")
oOU.Put "Description", "Automaictally Created Users"
oOU.SetInfo

strAcNamePref="Neil"
intNumAc=5
i=1

DO WHILE i<intNumAc+1

strAcNameWithID=strAcNamePref&i
Set oUser = oOU.Create("Users", "cn="&strAcNameWithID)
oUser.Put "sAMAccountName", strAcNameWithID
oUser.Put "Description", "Created by script"
oUser.SetInfo

oUser.SetPassword "Abc"&i

oUser.AccountDisabled = FALSE
oUser.SetInto

i=i+1
LOOP

Hope this Helps.
