Get cut.exe from either https://gnuwin32.st.net or http://unxutils.sf.net. Then set up the command line something like this: c:\automate\adfind -b ou=main,cn=users,dc=nwea,dc=org -csv -f "&(objectcategory=user) (mail=*@nwea.org*)" -csvnoq -nodn mail CN streetAddress postalCode title company department physicalDeliveryOfficeName telephoneNumber manager -csvdelim \t | cut -d, -f 1,2 > C:\automate\ftp\nweaoutput.txt Explanation: the 'cut' command parses input on stdin, and in this case sets the delimiter to the comma character, and the takes the first and second fields. This does leave the cruft 'CN=' before the full name, but strips away everything after the name. You can further massage the output to get rid of the 'CN=' with 'sed' from the same place you get 'cut' - I'll leave that as an exercise for you...

Re: ADFIND
Yeah, -nodn is just to stop adfind from outputting the dn for each object found no matter what attributes you find. If you're doing a larger report and not including group memberships, just add -csv and redirect to file.

RE: ADFIND not finding by homeDirectory (sometimes)
When I do this stuff in volume, I go ahead and escape the entire darn thing so
I don't get confused. I wrote an article about it a long time ago:
http://theessentialexchange.com/blogs/michael/archive/2007/11/13/working-with-binary-data-guids-in-vbscript.aspx
The core content being:
Function myADsEncodeBinaryData (arrByte)
Dim str, s, i
str = OctetToHexStr (arrByte)
''WScript.Echo "Length = " & len(str) & " '" & str & "'"
s = ""
For i = 1 to Len (str) Step 2
s = s & "\" & Mid (str, i, 2)
Next
''WScript.Echo s
myADsEncodeBinaryData = s
End Function
Function OctetToHexStr (arrbytOctet)
' Function to convert OctetString (byte array) to Hex string.
' Code from Richard Mueller, a MS MVP in Scripting and ADSI
Dim k
OctetToHexStr = ""
For k = 1 To Lenb (arrbytOctet)
OctetToHexStr = OctetToHexStr _
& Right("0" & Hex(Ascb(Midb(arrbytOctet, k, 1))), 2)
Next
End Function

Now, THAT is what I call UGLY. LOL
But it works, and that's the important thing. OK, so I will go re-work
my script to use "\5c" instead of "\" in the filter parameter for ADFIND.

Fwd: ADFIND/ADMOD question
I've got what is probably a simple question about using the joeware tools, adfind and admod. Unfortunately, the forums there are no more, so I thought I'd ask here. What I've got: a text file, listing user login IDs. What I need to do: change the home directory entry for each of those users. So, if I read a line of the file that says "LeoneM", I need to find the entry for that user, and change the home folder from "\\server1\users\LeoneM" to "\\server2\users\LeoneM". This isn't working (in a CMD script): SET _HomeFolder=\\server2\users\LeoneM" adfind -b "DC=my-dn" -f sAMAccountName=%%C -dsq | admod "homeDirectory::!_HomeFolder!" I get: AdMod V01.10.00cpp Joe Richards (j...@joeware.net) February 2007 ERROR: Issue with attrib parameter - [admod] ERROR: Missing operation. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? I can find it OK, using the above snippet, but admod is complaining, and I'm unsure why. I even tried hard-coding the value, with no luck. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
RE: ADFIND filter question
Well, that isn't going to do quite what you want.
For example, if you have a disabled user who also has "password never
expires" set, instead of userAccountControl being 514, it will be 66050.
I just happened to write a blog post about a related matter earlier today.
Wrappage:
<http://theessentialexchange.com/blogs/michael/archive/2008/12/11/useraccoun
tcontrol-manipulation.aspx>
You can take that same technique and do something like the below in
PowerShell. Redirect that into a file, sort it in Excel, and exclude the OU
you don't want. Save it and hand it to your dept mate.
Now, there is a way to do bit-wise searches in adfind. Now that I've told
you a different way to do it, you can do what you want in adfind this way:
Adfind -default -bit -f userAccountControl:AND:2 -excldn
ou=someou,dc=example,dc=com -list -csv -nocsvheader givenName sn
sAMAccountName
PowerShell
$ADS_UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE = 0x02
$objDomain = New-Object
System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry()
$objSearcher = New-Object
System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
$objSearcher.SearchRoot = $objDomain
$objSearcher.Filter =
"(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user))"
$results = $objSearcher.FindAll()
foreach ($result in $results)
{
$user = [adsi]$result.Path
$value = $user.userAccountControl.Item(0)
if (($value -band $ADS_UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE)
-ne 0)
{
("`t" +
$user.givenName.item(0) + " " + $user.sn.item(0) + " " +
$user.sAMAccountName.item(0) + " " + $result.Path)
}
}

Subject: ADFIND filter question
Sorry for the slightly OT question, but joeware.net seems to be under
construction, so I can't get to the forums.
Here's what I wanna do ... list all disabled users, in all OUs, *except* one
particular OU. And contructing LDAP style filters is far from my strong
suit. And I will then feed this over to my dept mate, who will use the
extracted file as input to clean up our Notes server.
adfind -b "DC=company,DC=com" -list -csv -nocsvheader -f
(userAccountControl="514") givenName sn sAMAccountName
I know that a value of "514" means disabled; what I don't know is how to
construct a compund expression to say (userAccountControl="514" AND OU !=
"name-of-OU").
Pointers? And how do you specify just the OU portion of the dn, anyway, for
use in filters or return values?
Thanks

RE: ADFIND tool
From: Ken Schaefer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: ADFIND tool That said, I think Visio 2002 Enterprise Architect edition did this. When I was at TechEd 2006 I got to talk to the guy who was in charge of the old Visio product that did the complete network discovery. He said the coding to do the discovery was immensely complex, had be rewritten from scratch in C++ then the Vision group got merged into the Office group and all the source code was lost. No one had a backup of it so they started over. He said that is why the newer Visio versions are not as good as that one old version. He left the team and most of the original coders left the team after that fiasco. I still have my copy of the version of Visio cuz I am one of the, probably, few people who popped the $500 to add the enterprise features.

RE: ADFIND tool
Um - how is it supposed to know where every server is? DC information is stored in AD - that's easy to extract. Server information means querying the OS version of every computer object. Then locating the IP address of that server, say, in DNS (and then what happens if you have duplicate records for a particular server?), and then adding it to a diagram. That said, I think Visio 2002 Enterprise Architect edition did this. But you may be better off just writing some script that has the necessary logic for your environment to do this.
