Hi,
Im a new user to PC review and this the first time ever im posting in a forum.
I have diffuclty in understanding dsadd command for adding users or ou to a domain.
Everytime i type the command i get the below error and goes back to the same line.
...........................................................................
C:\WINDOWS\system32>dsadd "ou=Finance,dc=contoso,dc=msft"
Description: This tool's commands add specific types of objects to the
directory. The dsadd commands:
dsadd computer - adds a computer to the directory.
dsadd contact - adds a contact to the directory.
dsadd group - adds a group to the directory.
dsadd ou - adds an organizational unit to the directory.
dsadd user - adds a user to the directory.
dsadd quota - adds a quota specification to a directory partition.
For help on a specific command, type "dsadd /?" where
is one of the supported object types shown above.
For example, dsadd ou /?.
Remarks:
Commas that are not used as separators in distinguished names must be
escaped with the backslash ("\") character
(for example, "CN=Company\, Inc.,CN=Users,DC=microsoft,DC=com").
Backslashes used in distinguished names must be escaped with a backslash
(for example,
"CN=Sales\\ Latin America,OU=Distribution Lists,DC=microsoft,DC=com").
Directory Service command-line tools help:
dsadd /? - help for adding objects.
dsget /? - help for displaying objects.
dsmod /? - help for modifying objects.
..............................................................................................
As Im a beginner pls ignore if it is silly error... please some explain me correct procedure.
