ldifde -m -f OUTPUTNICK.LDF -l mailnickname -d "OU=myUsersOU,DC=myDomain,DC=Com" -r "(objectClass=user)" I believe that is what you are attempting to do. Also, try ldifde -?. That will give you the syntax and some useful hints. Learn how to use ldp (read about it here http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q224543) to understand AD, object, objectcategories, objectclass, attributes, properties, etc. For example, with more understanding of ldp or adsiedit.msc, you will find out quickly the mailboxnickname is not a class. I'm not knocking you, just telling you how ldp/adsiedit can help speed up your learning quest. You will also be able to construct your DN, search scope and paths more easily. Good luck. Remember, Windows Administration has evolved. In order to efficiently tame it, you MUST learn to script, and I know you will find lots of help here. Sincerely,

I ran the following LDIF string? and received 'No Entries found': Ldifde -f c:\ldifde.ldf -d: "cn=users,cn=corporate,DC=TESTLAB,DC=LABROOT" -r "(objectClass=mailboxnickname)" Unfortunately, I don't know what the actual attribute is that I want; nor do I have any scripting knowledge. This is scheduled to occur once a month and for the most part there wouldn't be very many changes. Could you point me in the right direction?

What about daily LDIF transfers? The 5.5 GAL is LDAP-ish, isn't it? -gil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pelle, Joe Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 9:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Little OT: AD, LDAP, Exchange Hopefully someone has done this!!!! Scenario: Company A owns Company B and Company C. Company A runs Active Directory and Exchange 5.5. Company B runs Active Directory and Exchange 2000. Company A and Company B do not share networks, do not have any type of trusts, etc. Company A and Company B want to share Exchange server directories by way of exporting and importing .CSV files. How does Company B export from 2000 in a way that Company A can import into 5.5? Is there a better method? I'm looking for a way to do this as temporary until we have the time and efforts to bring our forests together. Please send me your thoughts, suggestions, and experiences!
