So basically, I have a group say "Prod" on the production domain. I wanna copy over this group to my test domain and retain the users and the privileges.

How can I do this? Is there a way to do it using BATCH or VBscript?

I tried net group

Answer 1

net group doesn't work cross-domain. You could try ldifde to export in the source domain and re-import it in the destination domain. ADMT v3.0 for environments using Windows NT 4.0 up to Windows 2003, or ADMT v3.2 for Windows 2000 to 2008 R2 environments may be another option.

Are the two domains in the same forest (or, more specifically, does a trust exist between them)? Otherwise you'll have to migrate not only the group, but also the users (can be handled by ADMT as well).
