Author automate user creation in AD

I have had no luck with this
I need to create a form or script for the HR department that will allow them
to do the following when a new employee starts

Create a new user account in AD (First name Last name, Username) or have the
code auto create the username from the values from the first and last name
Choose which OU to place the user in (there are 4 OUs that represent
different divisions on our company)

My manager does not want them to use the MMC


Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

If you search the web, there are already a large number of scripts available
for creating users in AD, however, if you want to build an easy to use
interface that would make it easier for your HR department to do that, you
need to custom build that using either a VB app or a web page.

shameless plug: my company specializes in creating custom scripts and
interfaces for doing just that.
