I believe some of the scripts that come with GPMC can be helpful here. As
for creating the XML file for structure, not as sure it's already built.
You do have some vbscript or perl options available that handle creating the
XML structures for you though. Take a look at the GPMC file and you'll see
what I mean. (there was a conversation yesterday about exporting the GPMC
stuff on this list, and I just replied to some of that. You'll see the
methods etc that relate to using XML vs. plain text in those files)
Drop a note if that's not what you had in mind though.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Script to export an AD environment to XML
Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2005 13:22:42 +0100
I need to build a test env and then export it lock, stock and barrel to
an XML file, so that the env can be re-created just using the XML file.
I need to export:
OU structure and permissions
GPOs and permissions
Users
Groups and memberships
I would normally use ldifde to export objects and GPMC scripts to export
GPO information but cannot find a way/script to export all of the above
into one XML file.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
neil
