Your daily dumb question. by nin_man2002-11-04 08:15:04
  automation and scripts is the proper answer by IQ-Neo 2002-11-04 14:55:19
for adding one or two users in NT based systems, you could use user manager, or computer manager. But, if you need to add more or similar users or do any other thing repeatedly, then you should use command line and scripts.

start->run cmd

net user /add "username" (without quotes)

as you can see, doing that, adds an user named "username"

so now you can do a batch file (.bat or .cmd) which should contain the same line multiple times, having different usernames in it. Now you just have to run this batch file on every new computer.

if you want more help on net user command, then just type net user /? in the command line and press enter. if you want more info on optimizing your batch files or making them do miracles .. leave me a note in my diary.
