Getting username to pass to Net user command

[phil_jones]

Hi
I'm trying to do a batch file to ask for input of a username then pass that input to the Net user command to find out info.
At the moment its coming back with all users on the domain rather than the input of the username. Any ideas, people?

Thanks

Phil

set /P INPUT=uname:


net user /domain %uname%

Any good?

Code: Select all

net user /domain %input%

You are definitely confusing your variable name with your prompt string.
Read the help for the SET command. The variable name is always to the left of the = symbol.

It's just possible I may kiss you. Or buy you a beer. All working thank you
