:

At the command prompt type the following: net user username /add /random /passwordchg:yes. The /random switch will randomly generate a password for the user. The / passwordchg:yes switch will allow the user to change the password.

You can add this new user to a group by using the net localgroup command e.g net localgroup "administrators" username /add
