Some customers, especially in education, don’t want their users to reset their own passwords. The new Privileged Users feature lets you specify a group(s) of privileged users (i.e. Tutors) that can reset passwords for another group of users (i.e. Students), the privileged user first needs to authenticate themselves before they can change the users’ password, all details are logged by default. The privileged user can only change the password of a user that is a member of the managed group.

Database
By default, the program uses Microsoft SQL Compact 4.0 which is installed by default. You can use your own SQL server should you prefer. This can be changed in the Config program.
Importing users into Active Directory (CSV, Excel)
The import file can be formatted using the CSV (comma separated value) format or Excel XLS and XLSX.
The column headers in your file (CSV,XLS,XLSX) should contain the name of the Active Directory Attribute you want to add the data to. A list of column headers/attributes can be found below. The columns can be in any order and the column headers are not case sensitive but obviously must be spelt correctly for the program to recognize them, if it comes across a column it doesn’t recognize it will ignore that column.
In the example shown below I’m using Excel to construct the file and using wildcards to speed up the creation of the file. The first row (1) contains the column headers, these are the attribute names such as givenName (first name). You don’t need to use all the attributes names just those you need, the minimum required to create a new users are shown below. This example file would create 5 new users.

Has been a real time saver!
“Although a user of AD Bulk Users (and the other tools) for some time now, I have only just harnessed the power of the scheduler part of the system. Previously I thought the software was superb, but this feature takes it to another level, saving us even more time than before..”
