Vista - ADSI Inconsistent behavior

Hi,

Is anyone else getting inconsistent behavior when using ADSI via Powershell?
I'm trying to add users into groups. An example is:

$AllUsersGroup =
[ADSI]"LDAP://cn=AllUsers@testgroup,cn=users,dc=test,dc=com"
$AllUsersGroup.Member.Add("cn=user1,cn=users,dc=test,dc=com")
$AllUsersGroup.psbase.CommitChanges()

However, sometimes 0 is returned from the "Member.Add" line and sometimes
its a 1 (indicating the user has been added).

Any idea why it works sometimes and not others?

Thanks,
Dave.

Hello Dave,

if i did my research correctly the page:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...ction.add.aspx

mentions that the return value of Add is the 0 based index of the item added.
it will throw an exception if it cannot add the user, so perhaps the return
code is not of much use?

thanks,
