  • How to auto create users

    Hello. Is there a way to supply some command shell parameters to hyena or something, so that I can >automaticly< make it create users, put them in the correct ou's, assign appropirate security groups and set users permissions on the home directory ? If so, how's it done, and what's the syntax?

    Right now we employ an addusers script that creates the users in the default users ou, and with hyena we manually assign security groups, make sure the users homedirectory is created, and moves em to the correct ou. It takes time with our 7000 users.

    Unfortunately there is no way to automate user creation, or create users in bulk with Hyena.

      Okay. Well I expected that, so I've built a bunch of batch files to do the homedir and user creation. Found a wscript for moving the user objects between ou's .... but I'm still looking for a way of adding the security group. ldp (tool from ms resource kit) does not support command parameters) and hyena as you say doesn't either .... got any other suggestions? Am sure you've heard of similar problems before. After all the company I work for can hardly be the only one in the world who doesn't wish to spend 20 mins every day on user management.
