just try managing AD users in PowerShell - sure its easy once you've written your own custom script or mapped it to a web interface or something, but there's no built in equivalent for adduser or about a billion other basic UNIX commands
It's not that bad. Adding a new AD user is a built-in command. From the docs:
New-ADUser GlenJohn -OtherAttributes @{title="director";mail="glenjohn@fabrikam.com"}
I'm not a UNIX admin; maybe the adduser command is easier. But managing AD stuff in PS is pretty easy (especially if you have to do it in bulk).
- niels_olson 14y agome@my_server$ useradd -G director glenjohn glenjohn@my_server$ vi .forward :a glenjohn@fabrikam.com :wq And there are at least a few other ways to do that. But you certainly don't have to be an admin to specify an alternate email address.
