Powershell script to change UPN
Hi, our users current UPN is first initial + Surname @domainname.local
I have added an additional UPN suffix and need to change the users UPN to firstname.lastname @domainname.net
Does anyone have a powerscript that will change both aspects of the UPN?
kind regards
Rick

Hi, many thanks for your quick reply.
There are approx 300 users that need changing that are in various child OUs, so i would do them in blocks and change the script to suit each time. The child OUs only contain valid users and not service accounts.
We need to do this in preparation for moving to Office 365 which we plan to sync On Prem AD with Azure AD.
I will check, but pretty confident we don't have any users with the same first and last names

Hi, the script as i say worked perfectly, however we have had approx 10-15% of AD accounts lock out after the workstation goes back to the login screen after the 15 minute GPO timeout.
We are just resetting the users passwords and they can log back in, however, we have had the same accounts lock out more than once after inactivity
Any ideas?

* About how many accounts are there? Tens, hundreds, thousands?
* Are you sure that firstname.lastname is unique for all accounts where the UPN needs to be changed? If there are duplicates, what's supposed to happen?
* How are the accounts determined that need to be changed; by OU? Are there accounts that shouldn't be processed (like service accounts, for example)?
