Hey guys,
I'm trying to wrap my brain around how best to accomplish this and need a little help. I need to create a security group for each department in our company, and then a security group for each section. At our company sections fall underneath departments. So we may have a department #24, and then sections #241, #242, #243, etc... Right now, we have made some schema extensions to allow Active Directory to contain relevant user data, such as what Department and Section the user is a part of. So the data is already in our Active Directory. I imagine there should be a relatively easy way to take each unique value of Department and Section and turn that into the security groups I need. So if it were to find Departments 24 and 25. It would turn that into two security groups named Dept24 and Dept25. Furthermore, if it found sections 241, 242, 251, 252, it would create four security groups named Sec241, Sec242, Sec251, and Sec252. It would also be "nice" if I could create the Department security groups first, and then not only create the proper Section security groups, but make them a member of the appropriate Department security groups as well. Any ideas on how best to accomplish this in a relatively pain-free fashion? Or if there is an alternative way to do this rather than Admod, then please suggest it. I just figured that Admod would probably be my best choice. Thanks, ~Ben
