Alternatively, first set your default interpreter to
be cscript with
cscript //h:cscript
This would be the recommended setting in my
opinion.

Run from
the command line using cscript [script_name]

Stupid
question. How do I specify wscript.echo to not require a response (hit the OK
button)?

Here's
an example of one way to do that. I would suggest that if you're wanting
to put in a random password that meets your complexity requirements, that you
concatenate a variable with the RAND function and then write it back out to a
log file. This example file is one that was used in the test lab
and could be more efficient. I had about 2500 users that I used and it
took about a minute to execute. Nonetheless, with minor mods, it
should do what you want.
Let me
know if I can be of any help (I'm bored ;)

Oh yeah,
I guess I have to read the username from a file and pass it into the dsmod
command also. Do I just want a list of users in a .txt file, .cvs??? And how
do I read from that?

Subject: [ActiveDir] Password set and
enable account
Ok, so my task is to generate
random passwords and enable the accounts for 3200 users. The user accounts
and all attributes were first created with ldife, and I am now thinking
about using the dsmod utility to do accomplish the password set and account
enablement. I wish I knew vbs like you guys do, but I dont yet (this years
resolution). So here is what I have for the password generation
part:
Function
Password_GenPass( nNoChars, sValidChars )
' nNoChars = length of
generated password
' sValidChars = valid characters. If zerolength-string
( "" )then
' default is used: A-Z AND a-z AND 0-9
Const
szDefault =
"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ0123456789"
Dim
nCount
Dim sRet
Dim nNumber
Dim nLength
If
sValidChars = "" Then
sValidChars = szDefault
End If
nLength = Len(
sValidChars )
For
nCount = 1 To nNoChars
nNumber = Int((nLength * Rnd) + 1)
sRet = sRet
& Mid( sValidChars, nNumber, 1 )
Next
Password_GenPass =
sRet
End Function
WScript.Echo "Your
password: " & Password_GenPass( 10, "" )
What is my next move? I am
guessing I have to pass this password to a variable, instead of echo, and
then somehow pass that into the dsmod command, but as I already said, I dont
know vb script. Any help is highly appreciated.
