error when using adsi

Hello,

i'm working on a VHD image (DC windows 2003 and exchange 2007) and i want
just to create an OU using powershell.
after looking on website i found the following code :
$domain = [ADSI]"LDAP://localhost:389/DC=contoso,DC=com"
$ou = $domain.create("OrganisationalUnit","ou=test")
$ou = $ou.setinfo()

but when i want to execute the script, i encountered this error :
Unable to find type [ADSI]: make sure that the assembly containing this type
is loaded.

Is it normal ?
Thanks
Laurent

are you on PowerShell RTM ?
