Hi Guys,
How do concatenate (say xxx) to samid for all the disabled users using quest cmdlets. E.g

I want to search for a samaccountname "AB" and disable it and and add "xxx" as prefix to the samaccoutname (samaccountname should be like xxxAB)
Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks
Regards

Try this:

Get-QADUser -SamAccountName AB | ForEach-Object { Set-QADUser $_ -SamAccountName ($_.SamAccountName+'AB') }

Thx Shay. Works perfectly fine.Have couple of more questions. How do i pass mulitple arguments in the same query. Eg In the above query we searched for a name and appended the string. Now i want to add xxx in the description and set the expiry date to todays date.

My quesstion is can i do it in the same query using AND. If you can explain with the above example that will be highly appreciated. Thanks Shay.

Get-QADUser -SamAccountName AB | ForEach-Object {
Set-QADUser $_ -SamAccountName ($_.SamAccountName+'AB') -Description ($_.Description+"xxx") -AccountExpires (Get-Date)
}

Try this alternative...

get-qaduser -ldapfilter '(samaccountname=ab)' | %{$_.samaccountname = "xxx$($_.samaccountname)";$_.description = "xxx$($_.description)";$_.accountexpires = (Get-Date);$_.commitchanges()}
