Vista - Remove groups from users

permalink · 12-18-2008

I just moved all of my disabled users into one OU. I would like to move all
group membership from the users except the Users group. Is there a script to
perform this. I'm new to Powershell, but I'm really enjoying the power it
provides.

Hi Shawn,

Using Quest AD cmdlets:

Get-QADUser -disabled -ou "<ou_dn>" | foreach {
$user = $_
$user.memberOf | where {$_ -notlike "cn=users*"} | Get-QADGroup | Remove-QADGroupMember
-member $user.dn
}

Thank you very much. That worked perfectly. I'm very much looking forward to
getting more versed in PowerShell.
