Some Active Directory commands

Some Active Directory commands

The commands below are a subset of the complete command list found in Useful command-lines, and are command-line operations that perform queries, diagnostics or modifications to objects in an Active Directory. These commands can be useful for once-off or repeated tasks, and defining a source for bulk imports/modifications to objects.

Each command-line can be copied and pasted at the command prompt, if you use a batch file you'll need to reference variables with double-percent (%%).
