If I just copy the ds*.exe files over it will work? I thought the computer would have to be connected with the AD or something. That's pretty easy. As for the permissions, I just need to give him permission to add users to the AD, correct? Can you remind me where that setting is...? :)

I have a batch script that creates user accounts in the the active directory. It uses dsadd to accomplish this. Is there any way that I can set one of my XP Pro clients up to be able to run the script and add the user(s) to the active directory. I want to give a certain user access to this script, but he does not have access to the server. He only uses the XP Pro machines. I know he has to have domain admin rights... Thanks.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
