Re: [Unattended] Adding users
I don't think the 'user' command does anything. However 'net user username password' seems to change your password. I did quite a bit of searching on google and didn't find anything about the 'user' command but found some info about the 'net user' command. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=251394 -paul Justin Beckley wrote: This might be a very simple question to answer, but I will ask it regardless.

Re: [Unattended] Adding users
As a side note; let me complain about Windows... Last week I was deemed with the task of restoring a user's registry. Windows 98/ME provides a command line utility for this 'scanreg /restore'. However, Win 2000/XP does not seem to have this functionality. Anyone know how to do this in 2000/XP? BTW, why does Windows change things like this?? thanks, paul Justin Beckley wrote: This might be a very simple question to answer, but I will ask it regardless.

Re: [Unattended] Adding users
Thanks for that adice, it worked. Now that I can add the user, is there a way to make to make the user account an administrator account? I checked the MS article and they didn't have anything about setting the account type. Any suggestions on this. Paul Baumgardner wrote: I don't think the 'user' command does anything.

Re: [Unattended] Adding users
USER is part of the legacy Windows UI management. To create users try: NET USER username password or NET USER username password /DOMAIN for domain/AD creation You can get more info by typing NET HELP USER Martin Buckley ZENworks solutions http://www.novell.com/zenworks http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/zenworks Justin Beckley [EMAIL PROTECTED] 31/Jul/2003 22:53:14 This might be a very simple question to answer, but I will ask it regardless.
