change Active Directory LDAP user or group permissions via script

Question

I Have a question for you

I want to create a script to configure a fresh install of Active directory Server 2008 R2. Basically, Create OU. Create some user accounts and groups in the OU (Managed to handle up to here ) And then… Add users and groups to another group while setting their permissions on that group object.

Don't have a clue of how to do that, tried to create new rule, and access the security object, nothing worked for me yet.

I'm using C# but If you have a lead for me that uses PowerShell, that would be great too.

Thank you very much,

Dave.

Checkout the AD cmdlets for this (everything you want to do is in the documentation). I would also refer from installing 2008R2 for a new domain since this product is already out of mainstream support (it has been succeeded with 3 new versions, 2012, 2012R2 and the new one that will be on the VL portal in a few days)
