What are the minimum fields I need to have to create a user account in AD?
Also can I create the exchange mailbox, grant group membership and what not?
One last bit, how do I specify a default password that matches their
accountname?


Thanks for the info.

You have at least specify: objectClass, dn (distinguish name),
sAMAccountName, userAccountControl and displayName.
You can not set password using csvde, nor you can specify Group membership,
because this info is set on group object and not on user object. Also you
can not do a exchange enabled user account with that. You can mail enable
accounts by selecting them all --> rightclick and select Exchange Task.....

How about using LDIFDE?

Nope, LDIFDE does not easily allow you to do passwords. I
would suggest that you look at ADDUSERS. You need just
the first three "fields" and can use LDIFDE to finish
things up...

HTH,
