[ActiveDir] groupOfNames story

Title: Message

Anyone know the story behind the groupOfNames class?   At first blush it looks like Exchange was going to use that and then right turned into using normal group objectclass instead. Probably because they are security principals but groupOfNames still is in the schema...     Is anyone using this? Has anyone seen it used? Can Exchange use it does anyone know? If so, that would be the answer to people complaining about DLs that get converted to Security Groups. Yes being lazy on that last there. I will probably check it out myself but easier to ask if someone is doing it.     Oh if you need a snicker for the day, check out birthLocation and what class can have it as a valid attribute. If you aren't a schema aware type person, you can read about it here:   http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url="">         thanks, joe
