AD Bulk Tool

Cross-platform Avalonia UI app for bulk Active Directory operations from a CSV file.

Prerequisites

• .NET 8 SDK

Windows

winget install Microsoft.DotNet.SDK.8

Linux (Arch / CachyOS)

sudo pacman -S dotnet-sdk-8.0

Linux (Ubuntu / Debian)

# Register Microsoft repository, then:
sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-8.0

macOS

brew install dotnet-sdk-8.0

Build & Run

git clone https://gitea.mikisoq.cc/mikisoq/ADBulk.git
cd ADBulk
dotnet restore
dotnet build
dotnet run

On Windows, you can also open the folder in Visual Studio and run from there.

Features

• Load a CSV with any column structure
• Auto-discover the AD domain and domain controller via DNS (click Discover or runs on startup)
• Supports LDAP 389 (normal edits) and LDAPS 636 (password resets)
• Built-in port/connectivity health check
• Dry-run mode to validate before making changes
• Actions: enable, disable, add/remove from group, set/force password change

Quick start

1. Launch the app
2. Click Discover (or let it auto-detect on startup)
3. Enter your AD bind username and password
4. Click Test ports + LDAP/LDAPS to verify connectivity
5. Load a CSV
6. Select the username column and an action
7. Run Preview then Dry run before executing

Safety

• Test with a dedicated test OU and test accounts first
• Keep Dry run enabled until you are sure the mapping is correct
• Password reset actions require LDAPS and are blocked on plain LDAP
• Do not use Ignore cert errors in production

LDAPS certificate trust

Linux

Place your root CA certificate and run:

# Arch / CachyOS
sudo cp your-root-ca.crt /etc/ca-certificates/trust-source/anchors/
sudo trust extract-compat

# Ubuntu / Debian
sudo cp your-root-ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
sudo update-ca-certificates

Windows

If the domain controller certificate is already trusted by the domain, nothing extra is needed. Otherwise, import the root CA into the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.
