Hello Gram,
Thank you for using newsgroup!
Based on my knowledge, AD users and computers WILL let you select multiple
users and also let you select the properties of them, however it will not
allow you to apply the changes for the users you select rather just one of
the users. The work around is to create a script which will modify the
profilepath attribute in AD
I found the script already from Microsoft web site. Here is the sample
script for reference:
=======================
Set objUser = GetObject _
("LDAP://cn=MyerKen,ou=Management,dc=NA,dc=fabrika m,dc=com")
strCurrentProfilePath = objUser.Get("profilePath")
intStringLen = Len(strCurrentProfilePath)
intStringRemains = intStringLen - 11
strRemains = Mid(strCurrentProfilePath, 12, intStringRemains)
strNewProfilePath = "\\fabrikam" & strRemains
objUser.Put "profilePath", strNewProfilePath
objUser.SetInfo
=======================

| We need a script to change about 100 users profile paths in 2003 AD,
instead
| of doing it manually.
|
| The only change is the servername, rest of path is ok.
