Regards, Michael B. Smith Consultant and Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com From: Malcolm Reitz [mailto:malcolm.re...@live.com] Sent: Monday, September 20, 2010 5:42 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: PowerShell - pipeline input help I'm trying to write a simple PS script to put the membership of an OU in to a security group. I can do this with a bit of code like below, which seems to work fine. $users = get-aduser -filter * -searchbase "OU=Test, OU=User Accounts, DC=fabrikam, DC=com" foreach($user in $users) { add-adgroupmember groupname $user } However, for my PowerShell education, I tried just piping the output of get-aduser in to add-adgroupmember. get-aduser -filter * -searchbase "OU=Test, OU=User Accounts, DC=fabrikam, DC=com" | add-adgroupmember groupname * This fails miserably. I'm guessing I don't have the correct parameter syntax for add-adgroupmember? Can any of our PS pros point me in the right direction for the answer?
