Every AD user and contact has a department assigned Querying by OU would not work because some departments do not fit perfectly with they're OU (Departments are payroll based, not necessarily function based). I was hoping to run something like (&(objectCategory=user)(department=*)) and only display department AND supress duplicates.

Not caring about displaying the users or anything else with the query.
