use exec for dsadd
- by Daryl Gill
I'm Programming on a Windows Server 2008 and I wish to have a WebUI to interact with the domains active directory.
One of my main problems is this that i'm using dsadd from a HTML form but this is no succeeding. I know my command is correct, I have tested it out on the Servers Command line
My Code is As Below:
if (isset($_POST['Submit']))
{
$DesiredUsername = $_POST['DesiredUsername'];
$DesiredPassword = $_POST['DesiredPassword'];
$DU = "{$DesiredUsername}"; // Desired Username
$OU = "PHPCreatedUsers"; // Domain OU
$DC1 = "slayerserv"; // Domain Part one
$DC2 = "local"; // Domain Part Two
$PWD = "{$DesiredPassword}"; // Password
$ExecScript = 'dsadd user cn=$DesiredUsername,cn=PHPCreatedUsers,dc=slayerserv,dc=local -disabled no -pwd $DesiredPassword -mustchpwd yes';
exec($ExecScript, $output);
mysql_query("INSERT INTO addedusers (`ID`, `DU`, `OU`, `DC1`, `DC2, `PWD`)
VALUES ('', '$DU', '$OU', '$DC1', '$DC2', '$PWD')");
echo "<br><br>";
print_r($output);
# echo "User: $DesiredUsername Has been Created";
}
When I print_r($output); it Returns a blank array:
Array ( )
Could anyone provide me with a solution or point me in the right direction?

Below is a working example of my usage of exec
$Script = 'ping 127.0.0.1 -n 1';
exec($Script, $Output);
print_r($Output);
print_r($Output); Gives:
Array ( [0] = [1] = Pinging 127.0.0.1 with 32 bytes of data: [2] = Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 [3] = [4] = Ping statistics for 127.0.0.1: [5] = Packets: Sent = 1, Received = 1, Lost = 0 (0% loss), [6] = Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: [7] = Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms )
