I never considered that the license cost of MIIS was all that high. Even if you paid list (which not many of the customers I've worked with did), its not a huge outlay.
The significant costs are in the analysis, requirements, engineering, and operations. -gil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 30, 2006 10:33 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Schema Question Yeah, until the price of MIIS [1] comes down from its stratospheric level, and until I can look customer in the eye and say "yes, you can use mySQL or such", I won't touch MIIS with a long pole. [1]Yes yes, MIIS is just one of many provisioning solutions. I've seen a few, and the engineering that goes into making them work at all is so intensive that I don't like to offer them as "solutions".

Is it possible to modify the schema that so every time a new user is created (via ADUC) an extension attribute is populated with a default value? Our Exchange guys would like extensionAttribute5 to be populated automatically with 100, which is the default mailbox size. Is this possible? It seems like it would be, but as I warned, I'm a newb.
