Hey Joe- You're right, AOD did not become Quest's Spotlight on AD. I haven't seen AOD since the Win2K JDP, but Spotlight does have a graphical site/replication topology viewer similar to what I remember about AOD.

I am not sure about that... I have played with some of the Quest stuff and I haven't seen anything that looked like AOD... I would have recognized it immediately. The topology generator in Spotlight I saw from Quest was 2-D though I admit to only running as a non-admin to see what it would do - possibly it goes into AOD mode if you run as an admin? Been a while but I think AOD ran completely as a non-admin. My "Gold" test for any product is to run it as a non-admin and the only things that shouldn't work are things that I *KNOW* require admin access rights. I actually have a perl script that does replication checking that runs as a normal userid and have been told multiple times that is impossible... joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Myrick, Todd (NIH/CIT) Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2004 11:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Where in the world is Micky Balladelli? I believe Quest picked up the ball and ran with it regarding Age of Directories. The site topology tool is part of their spotlight on AD product now.

Hey there used to be a guy named Micki Balladelli that worked for COMPAQ; I believe he was based out of Southern France or something like that. He was involved in a lot of the earlier scaling testing and he had this cool little tool he was working on called Age of Directories. I went to contact him to see if he is still working with that tool and enhancing it but it appears his COMPAQ email address is dead and so I tried a like-minded HP address and that didn't work either. Does anyone know positively if he left COMPAQ/HP? Does anyone have a newer email address on him? Barring all of that does anyone know what happened to Age of Directories? If you know of his whereabouts but don't want to give me the info, please forward him my email address and my request if possible.
