Yes, but oldcmp does have significant levels of "are you sure" built in. Anyway, there is a nice perl solution you might want to look at on Robbie Allen's site, at http://rallenhome.com/books/adcookbook/src/08.08-find_inactive_computers.pls.txt
In the book, Robbie explains why one would use Perl for this task rather than VBScript. That's all I've seen...maybe there's something on Microsoft's Script Center <mc> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jitendra Kalyankar Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 4:29 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Need ADSI Scripting help. I know about the Oldcmp.exe, but the thing is the tool is really powerful and I don't want Jr. Sys. Admins doing something or deleting something that they are not suppose to. And again I will have to go through the security department route to use it. Too much hassel.... Hope that explains my situation.
