rocknrollstar Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I am trying to use Active User Manager to create bulk AD accounts and folders. I'd like to set the my documents folder to be something like \\server\share\%username%\docs This way I could prevent the desktop.ini issue causing multiple "My Documents" folders. However, in AUM, %username% doesn't seem to get parsed. It makes a folder called "%username". Anyone found a work around? Enough people use this program, so I hope so! Thank you.
markwilfan Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Never used that before but impero offer a free ad user import. We create controlled assessment accounts using it. Works a treat and will do what you need 1

rocknrollstar Posted August 16, 2013 Author Posted August 16, 2013 Great, although from the screen shots, it doesn't look like it lets you set permissions on the folders it will create. AUM does let you do this. Any ideas?
vortex999 Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I use AUM to create bulk AD users, to set home home directories for multiple users just go back to Active directory and use that for this task. You can however use AUM to set multiple group memberships. 1
