Very helpful. Thank you. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony Murray Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 5:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Attribute on AD users called employeeID
If it's important that you see the attribute in ADUC then you can look at extending the UI by modifying the display specifiers. It involves a bit of development effort: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ad/ad/e xten ding_the_user_interface_for_directory_objects.asp Of course once you've done that you are committed to maintaining the changes you have made to the standard UI. Depending on why you want to have the attribute shown in ADUC (i.e. visibility or management, or both), you could look at some alternatives, e.g. - Develop a web (or other) interface for your admins to manage the attribute. - Use a different attribute that is visible in ADUC. - Look for 3rd party apps that include the employeeID attribute in the UI.

We are planning on using an attribute in AD called employeeID. However it appears that the attribute is not exposed in ADUC so you have to use LDP or a script to view it. Any ideas?
