I have a script that creates a user and assigns the password and the user to a group but I need to get 2 check boxes ticked - 'User cannot change password' and 'Password never expires' but for the life of me I cannot find out how to do this.
My script so far is this:-
# Create User and add to IGNITEWEBUSERS Group
$user = $domain
# If more then 15 chars trim to just 15 chars
$user = $user.substring(0, 15)
$user = $user + "_web"
# Generate Random Complex Password
# Generate a password with 2 non-alphanumeric character.
$Length = 10
$Assembly = Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Web
$RandomComplexPassword = [System.Web.Security.Membership]::GeneratePassword($Length,2)
$password = $RandomComplexPassword
$group = 'IGNITEWEBUSERS'
$objOu = [ADSI]"WinNT://$computer"
$objUser = $objOU.Create("User", $user)
$objUser.setpassword($password)
$objUser.SetInfo()
$objUser.description = $domain + " IIS User"
$objUser.SetInfo()
$OBjOU = [ADSI]"WinNT://$computer/$group,group"
$OBjOU.Add("WinNT://$computer/$user")
That works and does what it should do but anyone know how I can set those 2 check boxes?
Various threads suggest something similar to Set-ADUser -CannotChangePassword:$true
but am not using Active Directory and this doesn't work.
Your advice appreciated
Paul
Got it figured out this morning:-
$objUser.UserFlags = 64 + 65536 # ADS_UF_PASSWD_CANT_CHANGE + ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD
