Yes it is a tool, bad choice of words on my part. My lame excuse is I was in a hurry to run out the door. Apologies to Ben.
I respectfully disagree that one is as good as the other in this particular case but to each his own. It's not even close IMO. To test my filter I ran it against a small domain with a couple thousand accounts and had a csv file of all of them with pwdlastset and lastlogon in a few seconds. -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Heaton [mailto:jhea...@dfg.ca.gov] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2010 7:11 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Password policy enforcement after a change So isn't AdFind, then, a tool? So we're back to six of one, half dozen of the other. If this ALOinfo tool does the same thing as Adfind, then one is as good as the other. At least for this one application.

The query will be good to have around for future reference, even if I don't end up using it for *this* project. :) -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
