Script Action: Setup User Global Group Memberships

Function

Make a Active Directory or NT4 user account member of a global group. The global group can be a global group from a Active Directory, or an NT4 domain. In both cases the group is identified by its NT4-style (NETBIOS) name. The user and the groups must be all in the same domain. The groups may be either security groups or distribution groups. To specify groups using variables, see Data specification - Text list.

Deployment

This action is typically used in a script that is intended to create new users in Active Directory or NT4 domains, after creation of the actual user account with Script Action: Create User (AD) or Script Action: Create User (no AD). This action is then used to make the users member of a global group
