RE: [ActiveDir] Finding users who must change pw (and OT side thread)

[Lou Vega]

OK – there are many, many virus alerts coming to me now based on a VBS file being zipped in my last e-mail. For those who can read the VBS, you’ll see that there is indeed NO virus.   This brings up an interesting slightly OT question though:   When you need to legitimately send a VBS file or other type file that is frequently targeted as a virus, what is a good and acceptable way to send it so that it doesn’t get blocked?   Of course the double-edged sword there is that if legitimate users find a way to “safely” send such files, of course the bad guys will too.   r/ Lou       -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lou Vega Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2004 10:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Finding users who must change pw   Attached you’ll find a VB script written by Brad Sanford which I’ve used to generate user dumps before.   One note with it – open it up and find the lines: Domain = "YourDOmainGoesHere" OutfileName = "c:\AllUsers.txt"   On the domain = line put your domain name (i.e., “Microsoft” not “Microsoft.com”) and on the OutfileName= put the path to the file you want the results written to.   Enjoy! r/ Lou Vega   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Creamer, Mark Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2004 9:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Finding users who must change pw   I need to find which users have their accounts currently flagged to require a password change on next logon. Can that be done with dsquery user –stalepwd? If so, what value would I use? Or, is there a different solution I should be using?   Thanks!   Mark Creamer Systems Engineer Cintas Corporation Honesty and Integrity in Everything We Do
