Creating Users

For attack path <url to attackpath> we need to create an user account in the IT-group, to create an account we can use net user /add <username> <password> /domain and to add it inside the IT-group we can use net group IT <username> /add /domain. In this example we're using the following commands:

net user /add IT-support01 Sup3rCompl1c4t3dP4ssw0rd2022 /domain
net group IT IT-Support01 /add /domain

With the command net user <username> /domain it's possible to check someone's group memberships. In this example we're using the following command:

net user IT-Support01 /domain

For attack path <url to attackpath> we need to create an user account in the Employees-group, to create an account we can use net user /add <username> <password> /domain and to add it inside the Employees-group we can use net group Employees <username> /add /domain. In this example we're using the following commands:

net user /add pukcab Bangbang123 /domain
net group Employees pukcab /add /domain

The password Bangbang123 is a commonly used password from 2020, see refferences for the passwordlist.

With the command net user <username> /domain it's possible to check someone's group memberships. In this example we're using the following command:

net user pukcab /domain
