Powershell waiting for more parameters when asking for all users from a specific OU?

Question

I want to get all the users from OU "myusers" so I have this cmdlet right here:

get-aduser -filter * -searchbase"ou=myusers,dc=domain,dc=com"

But when Im running it, powershell prints a >> sign.. Im new to ps, but I think it means its waiting for more input..

Why does it happen? what parameters could I add to the search?

Maybe you mistyped the command, and waiting for a closing "

Try this:

get-aduser -filter * -searchbase "ou=myusers,dc=domain,dc=com"

no. I just wrote it wrong here on sf.. I'll fix it now – Npv23g Jun 04 '14 at 09:41
you were half right. there has to be a space between the "searchbase" and the string.. – Npv23g Jun 04 '14 at 09:43
