Joe- In Server 2003, lastKnownParent is reliably populated with the last known home of the deleted object. However, I've not tried Win2K and its quite possibly not.

Hey Darren have you ever seen that attribute populated? I don't recall ever seeing it on any objects. I never looked deeply into it though to see what it was legally linked to.

Check the lastKnownParent attribute on the deleted object. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 19, 2004 7:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] How to track object deletion? Hello, AD gurus. I' ve been developing a DirSync program that tracks for object changes in AD. Everything is fine except for object deletion. When AD object is deleted, as everybody knows here, it is tombstoned. As I figured out that means that the object is moved to the hidden container called 'Deleted Objects'. So when I delete an object DirSync returns me the following CN=user1\DEL:5fce35d1-42dc-4d42-b4d6-fd4a5c773acd,CN=Deleted Objects,DC=sbhbd1,DC=local as the DN of changed object. In the example above I deleted object with DN: CN=user1,CN=Users, DC=sbhbd1,DC=local. But I've lost some part of original object DN like: * ,CN=Users, * The question is: How to track AD objects deletion? I need to know object original DN, but AD hides it from me. I don't want to keep a copy of original AD or whatever similar to it. Thanks in advance! -- Best regards, (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) 19.01.2004, 18:27 List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/ List info : http://www.activedir.org/mail_list.htm List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/list_faq.htm List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/
