VBScript to add users form Global group into Universal Group

HI,
I am looking for help in creating a script to read all of the members of all of the global groups within a universal group and add the members to the universal group directly. I would then need to have a function to remove the global groups form the universal
group. Is this possible? I have been searching for help as I am stumped.
thank you,

Hi Tom,
sure this can be done. There's a useful command in Powershell named "Get-ADGroupMember" which will list you the members of your universal group.
After you have those, you can check those members out ("Get-ADGroup" might come in handy). When you have found all the groups that are global, you can then check their members (Say hello to your old pal "Get-ADGroupMember"),
remove them from the global group and add them to the universal group (Say hello to his two old buddies "Remove-ADGroupMember" and "Add-ADGroupMember").
Cheers,
Fred
Edit: Oh, just noticed you asked for VBScript - Sorry, don't know how to do this in VBS. If you need to run this against a Win 2k3 DC, you can install the Gateway service for it, that allows you to run Powershell cmdlets against it.
There's no place like 127.0.0.1

  • Cannot Add user to CMC Group when they are a member of LDAP group

    On PreProduction Server CMC
    Softerra LDAP browser used to verify user is a member of LDAP group
    User does not show as a member of that group in the CMC
    Cannot add user to LDAP group showing in CMC, the same group shows the member in LDAP browser
    On Production Server CMC
    For kicks I logged into the CMC on Production and I found the user is correctly showing as a member of the Group
    Why doesn't the groups in CMC show what is actually showing in the LDAP browser?

    Hi,
    Check if you have also mapped in both servers the same groups. It might be that there are some groups missing in the Pre-prod.
    Also, try restarting the CMS. I have seen similar issues that are solved after forcing the recreation of the graph.
    If after the restart you still can't see the groups, check the mapping on the LDAP server. It might be that both servers do not use the same attribute mappings.

  • Add users to a group from another Active Directory domain

    Hi Folks,
    I need add users in a group the active directory through the FIM 2010 R2.
    My scenery it is:
    Domain A with FIM 2010 R2 provisioning users for Domain B;
    I need get users the Domain B and add in group in Domain C.
    What's better way, create FIM portal for them, or create aditional script/development for FIM 2010 R2.
    Thanks a lot!
    Wilsterman Fernandes

    There are two approaches to do it.
    1st - easier - using FIM Portal/Service - just create a criteria based group that would be created in Domain C.
    2nd - more difficult, but you don't need FIM Service/FIM Portal - just export all users to one table in SQL and create a view, where a group and members (users from Domain B) are. It would be cheaper as you don't have to have FIM Service to do it. But if
    you have it, first is easier.

    Hi,
    Per my understanding, you might want to add an user to a SharePoint group in host web from a SharePoint Hosted App using REST API.
    Here is a working demo for your reference:
    var hostweburl;
    var appweburl;
    $(document).ready(function () {
    //Get the URI decoded URLs.
    hostweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter("SPHostUrl"));
    appweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter("SPAppWebUrl"));
    // Resources are in URLs in the form:
    // web_url/_layouts/15/resource
    var scriptbase = hostweburl + "/_layouts/15/";
    // SP.RequestExecutor.js to make cross-domain requests
    $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", loadPage);
    // Utilities
    // Retrieve a query string value.
    // For production purposes you may want to use a library to handle the query string.
    function getQueryStringParameter(paramToRetrieve)
    var params = document.URL.split("?")[1].split("&");
    for (var i = 0; i < params.length; i = i + 1)
    var singleParam = params[i].split("=");
    if (singleParam[0] == paramToRetrieve) return singleParam[1];
    function addUsersInGroup() {
    var executor;
    // Initialize the RequestExecutor with the app web URL.
    executor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appweburl);
    executor.executeAsync({
    url: appweburl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/sitegroups(8)/users?@target='" + hostweburl + "'",
    method: "POST",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",

  • How to add user in administrator group of project server 2010 with powershell command ?

    I want to add one user in Administrator group of Project Server .
    Please let me know how to do this through power shell command.

    Hello,
    You would need to use the PSI in your PowerShell commands. Here is a .Net example to get you started, convert this to PowerShell:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ajjose/archive/2013/05/24/creating-a-project-server-user-and-adding-user-to-a-group-through-psi.aspx
    Examples of PowerShell and the PSI can be found here in some of the scripts:

    http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Bulk-create-Server-Sites-784f7b29
    These wont do what you need but will give you an idea of using the PSI in PowerShell

  • Am I trying to add users to a group correctly?!

    Experts (Dave?!):
    As posted yesterday, I'm finally able to log in to the RHS Admin Console.
    I've been testing the Users areas. I'm having trouble adding users to a group other than the RobAdmin. Please let me know what/if I'm doing wrong. My procedure:
    1) Access the Users panel:
    2) Click the upper Add to add new group writers:
    3) Click OK. The writers group appears in the Group pulldown:
    4) Type in new user Kurt:
    5) Click Add. Note how the selected group snaps back to RobAdmin!
    6) Click Yes to confirm the user addition:
    7) Observe how Kurt is now added to the RoboAdmin group. (D'oh!).
    8) Observer how Kurt is NOT added to the writers group. (D'oh d'oh!)
    Is the above the expected behavior? If so, how does one add users to a non-RobAdmin group?!?!?
    Thanks in advance!.
    -Kurt

    Kurt, I hope the robo team is reading this, because I think this problem has been going on for a long while. What happens for us is, you can create the group, then add the user, then the group disappears from the drop-down upon refresh. I remember John Daigle looked at it a while back and was puzzled. It's the only part of server that isn't working right for us now, but it's a real pain--I can't create groups or add users.

  • Unable to resolve name in add user to security group screen

    Hello Everybody,
        Today I come to ask for advice from the FIM experts, it was just brought to my attention that when somebody tries to add a user to a security group by using the browse option they are able to search for the member and select them but when they
    click on "Ok" the account isnt shown in the Members to add box. However if the person types in the full display name into the "members to add box" the user is successfully resolved. 

    After some intense research this issue is caused by an recent Microsoft update KB3008923. I have opened an microsoft support case after being informed of this issue. This is caused not by an FIM patch but by and internet explorer update. Please uninstall KB3008923
    and your issue will be resolved. Or you can suggest to your users to use chrome with IE tab addon enabled as a walk around solution
    I am awaiting microsoft to provide an hotfix for this issue but until then I have just instructed my users to do one of the listed tempory solutions above

  • Custom login fails to add user to Authenticated_Users group

    We have a custom login servlet that authenticates to MS Active Directory with 9iAS 9.0.2 portal. However, none of the users are automatically added to authenticated_users group upon login. Our login servlet behaves as follows:
    - we do a ldap copy once a day to move usernames into OID
    - the servlet authenticates to AD with username and password
    - if authenticated, verify username is in OID
    - if username in OID, update password as provided by servlet
    - login
    I should also mention that we have 9iAS, portal, SSO, etc. using SSL.
    Is our problem missing logic within the servlet or with the ldap copy not populating a certain field? or other?

    Any ideas? We are getting close to deploying to operational network.

  • OSD: How to add user account to group administrators

    I has a variable named "AdminAccount", I want to add "AdminAccount" to inbuilt administrators Group.
    How to do it? Script?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    Net add command should do it.
    What format do you have it in the variable?
    net localgroup administrators contoso\AdminAccount /add would do the trick just replace the either accountname or the domain\accountname and you should be fine.
