What's the script written in? If it's VBS, then use
ADSI to retrieve the cn based on the sAMAccountName (which you already have, it
sounds like).

I don't understand the quesiton. You want an environment variable that
resolves to the value of the sn and givenName attributes strung
together?

RE: [ActiveDir] Variables allowed for creating home
folders
Unfortunately Stephen I have never seen anywhere that
this may be something that is configurable. I highly doubt that it
is.

My question is this. Is
there a variable that I can use when creating user home directories that will
resolve to the “User Logon Name” just as &username& resolves to the
samaccount name or “Pre Windows 2000 User Logon Name” field?
Background:
Normally what I use when creating
home directories (actually allowing AD to make them I should say) is
(location)\&username& and this creates the home directory using the
name shown in the “Pre Windows 2000 User Logon Name” field (actually the
samaccount name I believe).
Do to a change in naming
conventions I would like to adjust that. The new naming convention is
the “Pre Windows 2000 User Logon Name” field will be a number such as 12345
while the “User Logon Name” will be the users name. I would prefer to
have the home directories name be a little more readable rather than have
people having to remember their number.
This is only an issue when going
though the GUI. I’ve all ready got the script that I use to make users
in batch mode converted over. I just took the UPN name and stripped off
everything after the @ character and used that to name the home
directories.
Thanks for any
help!
Steve
