Simple Batch File

[sooli]

I would like a simple batch file that will add an administrator to a machine using my input.

I have a batch file that adds specific users - and i currently go into the batch file every time and add the new user that i am currently installing.

I would like the batch file to ask me what the new user id is - then take my input and add it to the admins list.

Thanks!

Try this, but be aware there is no error caching on this.

@Echo Off
CLS
Mode 62, 9
Color 9a
Title User ID

Set /P ID=Type In Your User ID :

CLS
Echo.
Echo User ID = %ID%
pause

Is this in a domain environment? Are you a domain admin? If so, did you know you can go into your own computer management and then Action > Connect to Another Computer?

You can then just grant them local admin access easily.

If you have to do this alot.... I know our system admin pushed out a script that executes upon login to do this. I can see if I can post it if you want.

Yes this is in a domain environment - I set up new computers for new users about 8 a day, sometimes more. (I do have domain admin rights but these machines are still in their boxes till i get there and not on the domain - so I cannot access them before I arrive.)

My current batch is as follows:

net localgroup "Administrators" /add "ms_dlg_odin css"

net localgroup "Administrators" /add "ms_dlg_msfc its"

net localgroup "Administrators" /add solivas

net localgroup "Administrators" /add ndc\solivas

net localgroup "Administrators" /add ndc\tlaughin

The last command is where I modify it every time - i would like for the batch file to prompt me for the user name, and then insert it where it says ndc\tlaughin. I am new to this Batch File Creation - and I don't want to mess anything up.

As long as i have the userid - i don't need any error checking - other than maybe a failed notice - if the user name is not on the domain, I always check to make sure the names took anyway so I really don't even need that.

Thanks!

Here I made this HTA so you can get the user input and run your commands.
