Create users and add them to groups from CSV file with the samba-tool command

What do you need?

You will need a linux machine set up with samba-ldap and root access.

How you do it:

1. Download the script with wget or the whole repo with the git command
2. Make the script executable with chmod +x create-user.sh for the user script or chmod +x create-group.sh for the group script
3. Run the script with either ./create-user.sh <path to csv-file> for the user script or ./create-group.sh <path to csv-file> for the group script.

CSV formatting

Note that the seperators and order of columns can be changed in the script.
