It isn't something I recommend toprogrammers who don't regularly code in c/c++. You are injecting code into LSASS which is touchy at best. If you have any memory leaks or other obscure code issues you could really hurt yourself. When I initially started playing with them I was really good

Probably that DN=OU= bit as well as you need the -d flag. Something like: csvde -f filename.csv -r (ObjectClass=Group) -d OU=groups,DC=ECCAD,DC=COM -r is the filter -d is the root of the LDAP search What you want is to start in groups and search for all objects that are of the objectclass

Yes you absolutely will run into the issue. The problem has nothing to do with load, it is how DSPROXY hands out GC's to clients. If you have GC's from multiple domains in the site where your exchange servers are, the exchange servers will have them all (up to I think 25 or something like that)
