Sorry if this has been asked before, I did a search first :)

Is there a tool for creating multiple users (inc home dirs if poss) under 2003? For NT4 I've previously used a User manager wizard that imported CSV files, great when you work in education and have hundreds of users to create :)

I use addusers.exe to get the users in (from a previously created CSV file), then a batch file to create the directories and permissions (cacls.exe for permissions)

Thanks Jack, it was much easier to use than I expected. I'm also making our lower school site part of our upper school so I've also used addusers to copy across user accounts. Much cheaper than spending hunderds on tools with GUIs!!
