Deleting Multiple AD users

[Dean]

Please help! I have around 2500 AD user accounts to delete from our
AD. As you can imagine, I am not keen to go through each one and
delete them so I was hoping someone knew of a way to delete them using
an automated process.

Thanks in advance.

Sample script to delete user form AD
===
Set objOU = GetObject("LDAP://ou=hr,dc=fabrikam,dc=com")
objOU.Delete "user", "cn=MyerKen"
===

So You can use this sample and enhance it to get list of users from the
data file or selecting them with query from AD

But be _VERY_ careful and test this script strongly in Virtual labb for
example before running it in Your AD domain

Here You will find example ow to create users using data from the plain
file - and deleting them is simple modification (sorry that comments are
in polish)

Here You will find example how to query AD for a users:
