how to extract user DN from AD?
does anyone know of any addins/tools/methods to extract or view the entire DN for a user in active directory? i'm trying to get a linux box to authenticate via ldap, but i'm afraid i've made a boo-boo when i wrote out the DN manually. Thanks!!! |

Re: how to extract user DN from AD?
Might be able to do it with ADModify - http://www.gotdotnet.com/workspaces/...8-3e44523f32e2
I know you can use that to make bulk changes, just not sure if you can export with it. |

Re: how to extract user DN from AD?
lots of ways..
You can use vbscript which is very handy.. but you would have to write your own script.. You can use csvde to export every object in Active directory (you can, of course, add filters to export only the objects you are interested in..). CSVDE will show you the full DN.. there are other ways too, but, at the moment, I'm rebuilding my laptop.. if you need more ways, or more info on csvde or vbscript examples (hint: google is your friend) then let me know and I can provide more info tomorrow once my laptop is rebuilt. |

Re: how to extract user DN from AD?
So i went with CSVDE and it worked great for me. I looked at ADModify but decided not to install since I can't run it over the network. Thanks for your help guys!

Re: how to extract user DN from AD?
Yeah I can vouch for CVSDE
Here is the command I use: csvde -f regions.csv -r objectCategory=person -l "givenName,sN,displayName,department,telephoneNumber,textEncodedORAddress" -d "OU=Regions,DC=landmarc,DC=local" That exports to a csv caled regionals, best to extract all columns so you can get the data you want and then lastly you select the OU you want to export. |
