Use csvde exe to import contacts




















My theme is getting you started. Imagine the scenario: your manager wants users added to his Windows domain. Fortunately, human resources have all the new joiners in a spreadsheet called Newport. A objectClass — User. Simple and easy we want to create a user and not a computer and not an OU. What the user should put in the Ctrl, Alt Delete logon box. Keep this name simple for now.

Remember we just want to get the prototype import working and then we can add more LDAP fields. All you have to worry about is have you created an OU called Newport in your domain? Is your domain called something like mydom. It is essential to find out what your domain is called, and only you know the answer. What would you say the Domain name is for this screen shot? The answer is cp. Incidentally, dc stands for domain context not domain controller. Import users from a spreadsheet. Avoid the trap of being so concerned with the -d switch that you forget the -f filename.

For instance, you may only be interested in the user objects and not the OU or binary objects. In which case you need a filter to remove the unwanted data.

There are two way to filter the output, row-wise or column-wise. There is no comma in this command, just a space between the switch and the parameter. What I mean is there should be no space between the minus sign and the switch.

However, — r with a space would be a mistake. Note 2: A Surprise. My answer was to check in Word for any extra symbols. If all else fails, I type the command manually at the command prompt. Sometimes closing the CMD prompt window, then re-opening magically clears the problem.

I only solved my latest mystery error by logging off and logging on again. I say again if CSVDE fails or encounters an error it seems to freeze when you subsequently issue a perfectly valid command. This utility will also guide you through troubleshooting; the dashboard will indicate whether the root cause is a broken link, faulty equipment or resource overload. What I like best is the way NPM suggests solutions to network problems.

Its also has the ability to monitor the health of individual VMware virtual machines. If you are interested in troubleshooting, and creating network maps, then I recommend that you try NPM on a day free trial. Conclusion: after hours of frustration, my advice is to avoid these advanced features. While it is possible to refine the -r switch, my advice is stick to the basics of Example 2a.

In my humble opinion, the normally excellent help is a bit sketchy on this -r switch. I found experimenting yielded results whereas slavishly following the instruction lead to disappointment.
