Title: Active Directory Health Check tool - where can it run from?

I assume you are referring to the ADST tool that you get if you're a premier customer and MSFT come and do an AD Healthcheck.  As far as I know, this can be run from anywhere (in the domain), as it's really just a bunch of VBS scripts that do ADSI and WMI queries against the DCs.  The cool thing is these scripts are wrapped behind a decent GUI.   --Paul ----- Original Message ----- From: Washington, Booker To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2006 10:26 PM Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Active Directory Health Check tool - where can it run from? It is the Active Directory Health Check Snapshot Tool. What exactly is ADRAP?  I got a copy from our Forest Admins because I am a child domain of the forest.   The reason that I ask is because I seem to get buggy results when I go from an XP workstation, or a member server, and I wondered if I needed to run it from the DC itself.     Thanks       From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2006 5:15 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: Active Directory Health Check tool - where can it run from?   Which tool is this? The AD Snapshot tool that you get from an ADRAP can run from any server.   --brian   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Washington, Booker Sent: Tue 10/31/2006 4:04 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: Active Directory Health Check tool - where can it run from?   Does that tool need to be run from a Domain Controller, or can it be run from any member server in the Domain, or workstation. Just curious. Thanks
