Hi this is a general question for a test lab. i appologize for the
broad scope of the question..

I am building a test lab consisting of one DC, an EX5.5 and an EX2003
server with 2 windows xp clients. the purpose is to try a migration
to windows server 2003 and EX2003. I would like to have a script that
creates users automatically and assigns them to a created group (any
group), im not so much worried about email addresses as in the
beginning it will be an EX5.5.

I would like to have a good number of users, i have seen vbscripts
online that take information from a delimited file, but i still have
to populate the file 1st. I am starting from scratch here.

Does anyone know of a site or resource where i can download 'fake'
user list in any form? is this a godd idea? would there be a need
for a resource like this?

Just curious
thanks

Create 1000 sample users. You can modify it to create whatever you want. I
usually modify it to put them into an OU instead of the default Users
container. You can also modify the count.

Instead of the website you're using, I suggest to use OEx (Outlook Express
or any other newsreader), and configure a news account, pointing to
news.microsoft.com. This is a direct link to the Microsoft Public
Newsgroups. It is FREE and requires NO ISP's Usenet account. OEx allows you
to easily find, track threads, cross-post, sort by date, poster's name,
watched threads or subject.

It's easy:
