Kiosk Mode User Accounts

We are currently running Horizon View 5.2 in kiosk mode.  The environment is running great.  I can create accounts via connection server vdmadmin -Q commands. When I pull up the user account via "AD Users and Computers", I can see the "Description" field populated and the "User logon name (pre-Windows2000)" field as well.

It is now mandatory for us to make sure the "User logon name" and the "Display name" are populated. Is there a way to do this via vdmadmin -Q when creating the accounts?  Screen shots attached

Run vdmadmin -help -Q to see a full list of the parameters you can specify for kiosk mode user accounts.

If you want to set other attributes for the user account you can just use standard Microsoft commands. e.g. you can use PowerShell commands to update any AD user account.

Import-module ActiveDirectory

Set-ADUser ...

Thanks for your advice Mark.  vdmadmin -Q doesnt' have the attributes I'm looking for.  Will have to use a different means of populating them.  Thanks for the Helpful Answer Smiley Happy.
