i was just wondering, why doesn't "net user guest active /yes" work with winxp pro? does anybody know any alternative for that to enable/disable user accounts from cmd?

Do you have an active directory to disable the account on?


IF NOT Im sure this is not new to you but in case-

Net user JohnBrown !CrAzYPaSsWorD! /add

or

Net user johnbrown /delete
-------------------------------------

If you are on a network and want to add or delete a user account from active directory on the server write a simple batch script and add it to the all users startup folder and have an admin logon to the computer. The command is normally completed and accepted before you can see that the window ever popped up.
