Just new users..Write a simple VB script to change existing ones. This
one works:
Dim oContainer
'Select the OU you want to go against.
Set oContainer= GetObject("LDAP://OU=myOU,DC=yourcompany,DC=com";)
ModifyUsers oContainer
'cleanup
Set oContainer = Nothing
WScript.Echo "Done."
Sub ModifyUsers(oObject)
Dim oUser
oObject.Filter = Array("user")
For Each oUser in oObject
If IsEmpty(ouser.initials) THEN
ouser.put "displayName", ouser.sn + ", " + ouser.givenName
ouser.setinfo
End If
If Not IsEmpty(ouser.initials) THEN
ouser.put "displayName", ouser.sn + ", " + ouser.givenName + " "
+ ouser.initials + "."
ouser.setinfo
End If
Next
End Sub
Note the lack of error checking, i.e. no guarantess, but it's worked for
me. There's probably better ways to write it also; I'm not a programmer.

OK, I just did this....
Do I need to replicate my AD or force RUS to update?
Or will this just apply to new users?
Maybe I'm not holding my fspoon right?

I don't eat Raviolo's. The kid always finishes them before I remember I
bought them.
It was an apple.

She types this from memory left-handed while eating Chef Boyardee[1]
Raviolio's with a spork with her right-hand. That's why she's Missy,
and we're not.
[1] Or Franco-American. Who cares.
