Here's your real opportunity and motivation to learn. There's nothing
magic about people who can script - they just learn. Learn by doing
(Chris Turk) ;-)
Once you have done, you'll have the skills to be able to do other
things.
Plenty of people can write scripts for you - but to learn to be able to
do this sort of thing arms you for the future.
Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish, you
feed him for life - unless you chop off his arms ;-)
Usually this sort of thing is the tip of the iceberg - you'll have other
things to do in the future. You can delay it, or dig your head in the
sand, or rip off somebody else's script, or fudge something with cmd
files and the net command, but sooner or later, most admins have to face
up to the fact that they're gonna need to do some ADSI scripting in an
AD environment.
The sooner people faced that reality, the less time they would waste in
early tasks.
