Ooh
let me know if you do. I keep meaning to write a script that I can carry
on a thumb drive that I can hook into machines I step onto them. An MS guy once
told me it was impossible, usually that is enough to get me to go do it but I
have been too busy the last couple of years.
I
keep meaning to get around to scripting that for myself, but its been a while
since I've had to do a lot of server builds.

As
it should be. All of the advanced view everything features should be enabled
on servers and any workstations that get admin tools installed on them. I
don't understand the MS thought to hide things from admin level users in the
gui's and making them learn enough to turn the stuff on. It is similar in
basic concept to the old idea that they should enable all functionality by
default and let the admin figure out what they could turn off. Thankfully
they have reversed that thinking and now make the admin learn enough to turn
it on. Maybe someone is thinking that they should display everything by
default as well and make the admin figure out how to filter things out from
being seen so they KNOW what is being filtered out.
One of my largest pet peeves on MS products is having to go in and
change all of the explorer settings on a server so I can actually see file
extensions and all the files.
Of
course not everyone hates that, it is good for the people writing virii and
trojans.
Dave,
Thanks for the catch - I completely forgot the
Advanced Features..... It's become ubiquitous on my
systems....

In ADU&C, go to the View menu and make sure "Advanced Features"
is checked. Then find the object and look at its Properties dialog -
there's a tab called "Object" - the object's full name is listed
there in the form domain/container/container.../object (example:
ad.company.com/users/fred). The containers are the full path of
OUs where the object is located.
The Object tab is only visible if Advanced Features is
selected.

Dave
Please can someone tell me how I find which OU an object is in
please. I can "find" the object using the find option on the AD UandC
snap in but then there is no info which OU the little rascal is
in.
I have a group which someone moved accidently and I need to move
it back but cant find where it ended up !!!!
Many
thanks
