    This Windows PowerShell script will prepopulate a batch of user passwords to a specified Read-only Domain Controller. It will leverage the capability of the native command, repadmin. The script will also strictly check the parameters for avoiding any potential human error.

    Currently, IT Professionals can only prepopulate user password for one account each time.  If IT Professionals have to prepopulate 200 or more user passwords within a very short period of time, the job will turn out to be very stressful and tedious.
