That should work in any
version of AD since release, the metadata has been there. However note that that
version of the command didn't exist in earlier versions of repadmin, you instead
used repadmin /showmeta which has a different ordering of parameters. I don't
recall why that was done but I recall that there was some good reason for it
even if it was someone thought it was better/more consistent that way.

When I said in my previous post "...Not sure if that works but i am in w2k3 FFL
mode...", it was rather "...Not sure if the switch / /showobjmeta works in w2k forest because it works in
w2k3...".
So you
confirm that it also works in w2k forest.

when i tried with the repadmin /showmeta switch, it shows me
the same error as you.
So you would try to install the
adminpak.msi for w2k3 in your windows XP box, because the repadmin
/showobjmeta is only available in the w2k3 adminpak.msi . Then try again
the process.
Try it and let me know if that
works.

Yann, does this command work against a win2k
forest?
When i run it against any DC in my forest, i get a .
C:\repadmin
/showmeta opnyc10.mydomain.com
"CN=YIPJ\ 0ADEL:f9eeaf3f-07f6-43d2-9a00-22923bef2fcb,CN=Deleted
Objects,DC=mydomain,DC=com"

If a dangling participle, split infinitive,or misspelled

If it helps any, by way of explanation, I usually write

I can never seem to find the time to post from work or a

But I'm sure that's more information than you or the

By "everyone", I mean I have enabled "Audit account

"everyone" well know security principle.

Hi Tom, i used the
following:
if the user yann is deleted from
AD:
1) adfind -default -showdel -f
isdeleted=TRUE -gc > del.txt to list all deleted users in del.txt (the
-gc query the GCs, i found it much faster to query gcs than dcs).
2) search for your user yann and
pickup it's DN "CN=yann\0ADEL:2a299250-27ea-4a05-bdf7-5ca9558ff733,CN=Deleted
Objects,DC=univ-lyon1,DC=fr".
3) type repadmin
/showobjmeta MYDC
"CN=dac\0ADEL:2a299250-27ea-4a05-bdf7-5ca9558ff733,CN=Deleted
Objects,DC=univ-lyon1,DC=fr" | find /i "isdeleted" to localize the DC in
which the deletion occured.
Ex: here is the result of the
command: 17730966 MYSITE\MYDC 17730966 2005-10-27 10:37:11 1
isDeleted
You can see that the deletion
occured at 10:37:11 AM the 2005-10-27 on the DC
"MYDC".
4) you can then use psloglist
\\MYDC security -i 630 -a 10/27/05 which shows u all deleted accounts
occured before the 10/27/05, or connect to MYDC to search in the event security
log.
If you can not find your
user at the time, it may be that an other domain admin has disabled the
policy account applied by default, so you may see with your peers to confirm
this.
hope it
helps

You have to restore(reanimate) the object from the
Deleted Objects container back into AD to run repadmin /showmeta GUID.....
otherwise it won't work.
Besides this won't help me figure out who deleted it or
why the audit wasn't logged.
p.s.- i have the Forestry book and think its great and
well worth the hefty price.

I thought to do that you first have to
reanimate the object from the Deleted Objects container before you can search on
the GUID. The deletion occured in a Win2k forest. I think what you are
talking about you can only do in a WIn2k3 DFL forest.
Besides, that will
only tell me the DC and time the isDeleted attrib was set. It wont tell me the
user or process that deleted it. thats what i really need and as my DC's seem
to mysteriously stopped logging event id 630 or 565, i'm screwed.
thanks alot

The Active Directory forestry book by john craddock is an
excellent resource for this type of AD audit.

Strange deleted object issue
It logged the creation/deletion.
My
question is- i've always had this policy set and yet an account got deleted last
nite and i can't find any record of it.
the security logs have not been
cleared and are set to stay for 7 days.
still i know a user account
ended up in the deleted objects container with a whenChanged date of
20060109202458.
someone/thing must have deleted it and there is no entry
in the event logs of any DC.
what gives?
Thanks

Strange deleted object issue
Yes. Thanks. I just have
2 issues.
1. I don't understand why i get that error in ldp when i enter
the oid control for deleted objects
2. Most importantly, i had audit
account management enabled for sucess and failure on my domain controllers ou
and auditing enabled for everyone for everything on the entire domain object,
yet when i use evencombMT to scan for an event id 630 in the security log, i get
nothing.
this account was deleted last nite so something should show up
with this auditing enabled, no?
do i have to set some other security
policy like audit directory service access as well?
I figured account
management should cover deleting a user object.
Thanks

not in the Lost and Found container either.
His exchange mailbox is

Sometime last nite this user was deleted but i have no

figured if an object was deleted it would definetely be in the deleted objects

Any help would be great because this is just plain
bizzare.
