Back from the pdbedit manual...
Le jeudi 8 Juillet 2004 16:21, Paul Gienger a �crit :
From the man page on the net command
[RPC|ADS] USER ADD name [password] [-F user flags] [-C comment]
The -F then would seem to set the flags. THIS part is not documented
very intuitively, but is available, in the man page for pdbedit
Well, I got there, and I can't see any of the following lines... How did you manage to guess that the information is in this man page ?
Maybe a more complete example of what you're trying to get at is in order... Are you trying to set the contents of those fields or create the directories that will correspond to them?<liberal use of snip>
It must be, because as I said, I can't find any of the following in that man page. So, I tried to use some of these options into the "net user add" command, after the "-F" flag, but it keeps returning me "usage()" :-(
Could you give me an example of what you think is the actual syntax to this flag ? Say, for example, creating a user specifying is homedrive, homepath, profilepath, etc... Some thing like :
# net rpc user add TestUser -F ????? -U administrator -S server
If the former, you probably want pdbedit with an option like so:
-h homedir
This option can be used while adding or modifing a user account. It will specify the user's home directory network path.
Example: *-h "\\\\BERSERKER\\sorce"*
If the latter, why not just use the script you're apparently trying to write to create the directory? If it's on a different machine, use an ssh command. If it's on a windows box, you could probably smbmount the parent and then create the dir. Maybe after a clearer explanation it will make sense, but for now it sounds like you're trying to use a hammer to turn in a screw.
