hey,

i know that you can create new users in command prompt by typing:
net user USERNAME PASSWORD /add
and change their user group with the command
net localgroup USERGROUP /add USERNAME
but these are both on the local machine, and i need to create users on my network... i was hoping to create a batch file to do this that i could copy and paste the names of everyone i wanted into it, but i don't know how/if this is possilbe...

all i need to know is if there is a similar command to net user /add that lets me create new users on a network...


thanks

If you are creating accounts in a domain and have domain administrator rights, use /domain at the end of the net user /add command.



net user USERNAME PASSWORD /add /DOMAIN



Use 'net group' to add users to a domain group.



net group USERGROUP USERNAME /add /DOMAIN



Get detailed syntax for the commands using 'net user help' and 'net group help'.



If you're trying to create local accounts on a remote computer you can use Computer Management or create WMI scripts.



Good luck.

you may desire to setup up one laptop as a server and hook the printer as lots via fact the server. You rather do no longer could desire to have it on the server besides the shown fact that it certainly makes is a lot greater convenient. Having an ethernet connection on your printer is a lot greater convenient. A chep HP multi functional does this for below $a hundred greenbacks. USB approach the choice laptop ought to be walking and numerous others...
