I just noticed that I have replied to the wrong thread. Although my question is about net what I wanted to know I asked in a different thread. I'll quote my question to make clear what I was interested in:
<quote> is it possible to execute "net ads testjoin" without net asking for a password (in any circumstance)? The reason for my question is that I want to use it in a script and thus won't be able to supply a password to net (net does not ask for a password on stdin). </quote> Regards, Khaled 2010/7/7 Khaled Blah <[email protected]>: > Hi all, > > thanks for your replies!
