Moving a user between two local groups

hi

in windows 7, when try move user between 2 local groups these 2 statements:

([adsi] "winnt://([environment]::machinename)/$groupname,group").add( ([adsi] "winnt://$([environment]::machinename)/$username,user").adspath )  ([adsi] "winnt://([environment]::machinename)/$oldgroupname,group").remove( ([adsi] "winnt://$([environment]::machinename)/$username,user").adspath )

the following error written: "exception retrieving member" add ":" can not find network path."

where mistake?

thanks

bye

you missing $ sign in in first  subexpression  (e.g '$([environment]::machinename)')

you can use $env:computername instead, expandable inside strings , doesn't require sub-expression syntax.

 

([adsi] "winnt://$env:computername /$groupname,group").add( ([adsi] "winnt://$env:computername /$username,user").adspath )
