Hello all,

I am after a script / batch file. Where by it prompts you for the
samaccountname, then a server/folder and create an account and amend the ACL
of it....

Something like this....

1. Prompt for user id - enter "USERID"
2. Prompt for server folder - enter "\\sn000001\userfolder\area
3. Folder gets created  \\sn00001\userfolder\area\userid
4. Permissions are changed on \\sn00001\userfolder\area\userid to include
"USERID" (Full control) & "Domain Admins" (full control) & "admin group1"
(full control) & "admin group2"(modify)

any ideas?

also what would be even better if step 2 can include some kind of selection
list. "select 1 for \\sn000001, select 2 for \\sn000002...."

the following is the simplfied version of vbs script, you might need add more
error checking and handling statements to make it perfrect. the essential is
the "cacls" commandline. it is build in windows dos command, to check the
usage, just type in cacls /? in command prompt.

'createfolder.vbs

'enter info
userID=inputbox("Enter user ID:")
Serverpath=inputbox("Enter server path:")
folderpath=Serverpath & "\" & userID

' create folder
set fs=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

if not FolderExists(folderpath) then
    set f=fs.CreateFolder(folderpath)
end if
set f=nothing
set fs=nothing

Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
objShell.Run("%COMSPEC% /c Echo Y| cacls " & folderpath & " /t /c /g " &
chr(34) & "Domain Admini" & Chr(34) & ":F " & chr(34) & userID & chr(34) &
":F " & chr(34) & "Admin group1" & chr(34) & ":F " & chr(34) & "Admin group2"
& chr(34) & ":c ", 2, True)
