Re: [ActiveDir] OT: RUS

I think it's a really good idea to clean up the UPN's.  However, I think it worth noting that you may want to have a look at the process that provisions the users and creates those upn's.  Just to make sure you don't end up doing the work over and over again.

 

I realize upn alone will work, but I think it would be a good idea to consider tagging the user objects' custom attributes with some identifying information as well.  It may be that in the future you'll want to sort on different attributes and you may or may not be in a situation where upn is flexible enough.

We have 1 AD forest with 5 total domains. They are "sister" domains and they don't share a namespace. For instance we have one domain for our Police Department, one for the Sheriff Department, one for the Public Schools, etc.

 

As for Steven's suggestion for UPN, we were hoping to use that, but it looks like we'll have to do a lot of cleanup before we can. There's a lot of incorrect UPNs in our directory.

There're probably too many definitions of the word "domain" to really give good advice.  Can you expand that question?

Would there be an easy way to write a RUS policy that stamped the email addresses based on what domain each user was in? This seems like it would be easy, but I don't see any attribute that I can get the domain from with an LDAP query.

 

Please tell me I'm missing something obvious!
