This is an older thread - but I'm curious, what if you wanted a more ongoing sync between a "development" domain and a "production" domain?
I've used the LDIFDE to "clone" a directory structure (OU's, groups, users) before but it's always been a "one-shot" deal...is there an easier way to keep the two in synch? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of GRILLENMEIER,GUIDO (HP-Germany,ex1) Sent: Friday, November 21, 2003 3:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Mirror OU structure to Test If you only need a one-time mirror (with no ongoing sync) then a simple CSVDE dump will do the trick. 1. dump current data: csvde -f OULIST.csv -r "(objectClass=OrganizationalUnit)" 2. edit data as required in Excel (e.g. remove system-attributes and change DN as needed) 3. import data to test-forest csvde -i -f OULIST.csv /Guido -----Original Message----- From: Jef Kazimer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Freitag, 21.

Is anyone aware of a script or tool where I can export and import the structure? If so....would they share? :) I think I can write something, but if anyone has a pointer in the right direction to an already existing one, that would help out alot!
