Active directory user creation

[pranesh006_chalmi]

Hello,

Is it possible to create two identical user accounts in Active directory? If Yes, then how ?

Nope can't do that. You can create accounts with the same user rights, maybe even setup the same email accounts, but you can't re-use the same user names.

Add those 250 users to a group policy user group, configure their wallpaper.

Yes, the best way is to go for a new group creation and adding all those 250 users to that group through GPO. Now, set the permissions for these 250 users. Now the newly created Group will have permissions set by you to view the wallpapers.

Thank you
