fact
Directory and Resource Administrator 7.x

fix

To add a user account to multiple groups with one operation, please use the syntax below, based on the EA.exe command on a Directory and Resource Administrator client workstation:

FOR /F "TOKENS=1 DELIMS=" %1 IN (C:\GrpNames.txt) DO EA GROUP %1 MEMBERADD account_name

The EA.exe command is located in the C:\Program Files\NetIQ\DRA directory by default.



note
The group names in the text file should be listed in a column by Group name (pre-Windows 2000) with each group on a separate line.
