I am trying to run the simplest of Powershell scripts in Windows Server 2008. <br />
I an trying to change the FullName property of a local user. This script <br />
works fine on XP (the local user &quot;testuser&quot; exists on the on WS2K8 server I'm <br />
running on): <br />
<br />
$user = [ADSI]&quot;WinNT://./testuser,<wbr />user&quot; <br />
$user.Fullname=&quot;Test User&quot; <br />
$user.SetInfo() <br />
<br />
When I hit the SetInfo() line, I get this error: <br />
<br />
Exception calling &quot;SetInfo&quot; with &quot;0&quot; argument(s): &quot;The filename, directory <br />
name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. ( <br />
Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007B)&quot; <br />
<br />
If i do $user.psbase.properties, it dumps the list of properties and values <br />
with the new value reflected, i just cant actually write the info. <br />
<br />
Googling had turned up nothing useful. <br />

<pre><code id="code-191635">$user = [ADSI]&quot;WinNT://./testuser,user&quot; 
$user.Fullname=&quot;Test User&quot; 
$user.SetInfo()
</code></pre>
