SYMPTOMS
========
When you attempt to output a list of users through the Addusers resource kit
utility, it is possible that you will repeatedly receive the following message:
User account <username> saved to file!
The resulting file can be very large for the number of accounts originally
exported (for example, a 1 MB file results for only five user accounts
processed).
When you attempt to import a list of users from a previously created user dump
file, it is possible that the following error could repeatedly appear:
Error 2224 - Username "<username>" not added
A normal export should look similar to the following:
[User]
Administrator,,,Build-in account for administering the
computer/domain,,,,
Guest,,,Build-in account for guest access to the computer/domain
<Userid1>,,,,,,
<Userid2>,,,,,,
<Userid3>,,,,,,
<Userid4>,,,,,,
[Global]
Domain Admins,Designated administrators of the domain,Administrator,
Domain Guests,All domain guests,Guests,
Domain Users,All domain users,<userid>,etc.,
[Local]
Account Operators,Members can administer domain user and group accounts,
Administrators,Members can fully administer the computer/domain,
Backup Operators,Member can bypass file security to back up files,
Guests,Users granted guest access to the computer/domain,
Print Operators,Members can administer domain printers,
Server Operators,Members can administer domain servers,
Users,Ordinary users, Replicator,Directory Replication,
Output from a wrong version of Addusers.exe will produce something similar to the
following:
User Name,Full Name,Password,Comment,Home Drive,Home Path,Profile,Script
Administrator,,,Built-in account for administering the computer/domain,
Guest,,,Built-in account for guest access to the computer/domain,
<Userid1>,
<Userid2>,
<Userid3>,
<Userid4>,
<Userid1>,
<Userid2>,
<Userid3>,
<Userid4>,
<Userid1>,
...etc.
There will be no section names for [User], [Global], and [Local].
MORE INFORMATION
================
The preceding error messages and export file result if you attempt to use a
version of Addusers.exe from the Windows NT Resource Kit on a version of Windows
NT different than the one on which your computer is running (in other words, if
you use Addusers.exe from the Windows NT 3.51 Resource Kit on a computer running
Windows NT version 4.0 or Addusers.exe from the Windows NT 4.0 Resource Kit on a
computer running Windows NT version 3.51).
RESOLUTION
==========
Run the version of Addusers.exe compiled for the intended platform.
