a script to change user's properties

Post by Vakili »

I want to change some attributes of existing users:
I want to change their passwords, and enable them.
user names and new passwords are stored in a CSV file.

How can i do that using a script?

thanks

If you have to spend time learning how to do this, I respectfully suggest spend the time learning how to do this in something you can re-use and has more long term value. While you can use command line tools like CSVDE or even the DS* tools, this type of task is very common and pretty easy to accomplish using Windows PowerShell.
