The Employee ID attribute you speak of is there... it is listed under Organization in the User Properties.
Now, if you want, you could use one of the attributes that are in teh Managed By in the Group Properties. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Myrick, Todd (NIH/CIT) Sent: Wednesday, September 29, 2004 11:16 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Group ID Code Attribute Greetings, We have a requirement for encoding an entry on our AD groups with an ID code in an attribute. I have been asked to look into ways to best accomplish the requirement. I have reviewed the AD schema, and there doesn't appear to be an attribute dedicated to this function already. (We are looking for something like Employee ID.) http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/adschema/ad schema/attributes_all.asp So it looks like our alternatives are to either use an existing attribute on a group, or to extend the schema to support the attribute. My question for the list is has anyone ran into this before and if so, what approach have you done. If I choose the option to extend the schema, how would we expose that attribute to be modified in native tools?
