Create user batch file

[Guest]

I am trying to create some directories after creating a user by using the "After creating Home directory run" option.

I point this to the batch file that has the lines

md \\servername\users\%2\Work

when creating a user say "John Smith" the %2 variable that is parsed to the batchfile is Smith$

I have verified this by putting a pause statement in the batch file and the line returned is :-

md \\servername\users\smith$\work

Any Ideas

Re: Create user batch file

I'm not able to duplicate this problem, so put the following in your batch file, then send a screen shot of the DOS window after creating a user to [email protected]:

echo 1 = %1
echo 2 = %2
echo 3 = %3
echo 4 = %4
echo 5 = %5
echo 6 = %6
pause

Also include in your email the version of Hyena you are using and what exact steps you are taking to create this user.

Re: Create user batch file

This has helped me solve the problem

If I used John Smith

%3 = John
%4 = Smith

So I used

md "\\servername\users\%3 %4\Work"

Many thanks for your help
