anybody successfully add users with any of these methods?  I'm trying them
all from a VB ActiveX dll.
 
1. using AddUser.exe
2. using the IMail API
3. directly appending to the registry
 
i am tearing out my hair - all three seem to be causing me some problem.
 
1. adduser - it seems to work fine when i call it from a standard VB
app, but when i put the same code into a dll and call it from an ASP
page, it returns "ERR: failed to add user test2 on domain.com " - no
details as to why it failed.  if i try to add a username that already
exists, it says "ERR: user test already exists on domain.com" so i know
the executable is being called.  is there something with the windows
user account permissions?
 
2. the IMail API seems totally wack!  i sucessfully added a user twice.
then, no changes to the code - it just doesn't work anymore.  it says
the user was crreated, but it isn't.  no explaination.  also, it has really
unusual behavior when setting certain properties - the Max Mailbox size
property - crashes when I try to access it.  maybe because the vartypes are
not compatible with vbscript?
 
3. i'm ready to give up and just go with directly inserting into the
registry, but i don't know how to crypt the password.  also, are there
any problems with just adding the registrty keys directly?  do i need to
do anything else?
 
thanks so much for any info.  i greatly appreciate it.  i'd be happy to
share my code with anyone once i actualy get it working.
 
best,
jason
