Hi,
I don't know what you intend to do with the users, but the simplest approach
would be to bind to the OU container in AD, filter on objects of class
"user", and enumerate the users in the OU in a "For Each" loop. For example,
to output the NT names (the "pre-Windows 2000 logon name") of all users in
the ou=Sales container of the MyDomain.com domain:
Set objOU = GetObject("LDAP://ou=Sales,dc=MyDomain,dc=com")
objOU.Filter = Array("user")
For Each objUser In objOU
Wscript.Echo objUser.sAMAccountName
Next
This should be run at a command prompt using the cscript host. The output
can be redirected to a text file. For example, if the VBScript above is in a
file called EnumUsers.vbs, you would execute the following at a command
prompt to export a list of usernames to a text file called Users.txt
cscript //nologo EnumUsers.vbs > Users.txt
