From the help text in generated by typing net user /?:
The syntax of this command is:
NET USER
[username [password | *] [options]] [/DOMAIN]
username {password | *} /ADD [options] [/DOMAIN]
username [/DELETE] [/DOMAIN]
From the help text generated by typing net localgroup /?:
The syntax of this command is:
NET LOCALGROUP
[groupname [/COMMENT:"text"]] [/DOMAIN]
groupname {/ADD [/COMMENT:"text"] | /DELETE} [/DOMAIN]
groupname name [...] {/ADD | /DELETE} [/DOMAIN]
Hence:
net user JSmith SomePassword /add
net localgroup "Power Users" JSmith /add

I have about 100 servers and I want to create a new local user and add them
to the power users group with a script. So, I would have a text file with
the name of all the servers that I want to have a user created and add them
to the power users group. I am really looking for a script to do this...
Thanks

@echo off
for /F %%a in (c:\Servers.txt) do psexec.exe \\%%a
\\YourServer\SomeShare\AddUser.bat
AddUser.bat is the two-line batch file I suggested in my first reply.

I was running it this way, without the network share...
psexec @c:\temp\computerslist.txt -u rspa\leek -p Pa33word -c
c:\temp\adduser.bat -d
and it seems to run fine for several workstations in HQ but remote
workstations I am having a hard time, I'll keep you posted...
But I really do appreciate your posts, now I know you can use variables
instead of @path:\textfileofservers...This should work as well, correct?
thanks again
