What? Like simplesync? I was beginning to wonder if anyone was going to bring up perl for this particular application. It strikes me as the common glue for this particular application that doesn't require the gnotes client software to be installed. i.e. self-sustaining.
I think if I were not going to go with a COTS application I'd likely choose something like perl to write it. I have to agree that MIIS is way overkill for this if this is your only usage scenario. Just curious, but why do you want to populate that data in AD? Seems silly if nobody is using it for a directory other than admins. Was there an application that wants it?

I agree that MIIS could be convenient but only if it is already there or you have other plans for it. If this was the only reason for it I would be more apt to put something else together that had a far lower bar of entry such as some basic scripts that are scheduled through task scheduler or made into a service (Perl PSDK) or LDSU or some basic low end syncing tools that don't require setting up a full blown SQL and MIIS server. -- O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition - http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm ------------------------------ *From:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *On Behalf Of *Brian Desmond *Sent:* Saturday, January 27, 2007 7:39 PM *To:* ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org *Subject:* RE: [ActiveDir] How to find non-primary SMTP addresses?

Slightly OT Ewww. :) Unless there are other needs that require MIIS I don't think I would deploy it for this. MIIS is a 50 caliber when all that was probably needed was foam pellet gun. I have seen folks doing this before, usually they get an LDIF extract from Notes and just slam that into AD as contacts or mail-enabled users. Actually getting the info out of Notes... no clue, I didn't even want to start touching Exchange let alone any other messaging apps. I am happy just with Windows Server 2003 SMTP and looking at the text files. ;o) -- O'Reilly Active Directory Third Edition - http://www.joeware.net/win/ad3e.htm ------------------------------ *From:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *On Behalf Of *Laura A.

Slightly OT Same topic, but this one is for Notes Admin/Gurus as well. I populate the mail attribute in AD with the Notes Users primary internet address. Does anyone have a script or method that will allow me to publish in AD the same info for groups and other addresses for users. Even something that can query Domino for all users and groups and return * all* addresses into a file, I can use that as a basis to update AD with proxy info etc. Thanks in advance.

Out of curiosity, when setting a different primary e-mail address to an address that already exists as a secondary, does ADUC do anything more than change the prefix on the old primary address from 'SMTP' to 'smtp' and vice-versa for the new primary?

In addition to what Ulf said, there also isn't any practical way to query for users that have secondary addresses vs. only having a primary and there isn't any practical way to just get the secondary addresses out of the proxyAddresses attribute. You essentially need to get all the data and then check for the values that are prefixed with lower case "smtp". Maybe Joe R. has a neat trick with ADFind to make this easier, but LDAP itself doesn't help much. Joe K. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ulf B.

Hi Stu, I don't think there's a way to expose mulitvalued attributes with CSVDE - you'd either have to use LDIFDE or VBScript or anything else to view all values of those attributes.
