JSI Tip 10553. How can I move all the Distinguished Names specified in a text file to a new OU (Organizational Unit)?

Using ADMod.exe freeware, I have scripted MoveOU.bat to move all the Distinguished Names that you specify in a file to a new, common, OU.

The syntax for using MoveOU.bat is:

MoveOU Filename "New OU"

Where:

FileName is the file that contain the quoted Distinguished Names, one per line, that you want to move to New OU.         Example: "CN=TESTCOMP,CN=Computers,DC=JSIINC,DC=COM"                   "CN=TESTUSER,OU=West Coast,DC=JSIINC,DC=COM"New OU   is the new OU that you want all the objects in FileName to be moved to, like "OU=East Coast,DC=JSIINC,DC=COM"

MoveOU.bat contains:

@echo offif {%2}=={} @echo Syntax: MoveOU Filename NewOU&goto :EOFif not exist %1 @echo MoveOU %1 does not exist.&goto :EOFsetlocalset file=%1set newou=%2for /f "Tokens=*" %%a in ('type %file%') do ( admod -b %%a -unsafe -move %newou%)endlocal
