Wow! Yes, that is the it-must-be-there-somewhere feature I was looking for. Thank you, Guido!

P.S. Published At goes a long way toward addressing this; “Go to Container” would still be nice.

I've seen various posts now that are requesting ADUC to help you know which OU an object in the search-results belongs to: this exists with the 2003/XP version of ADUC => just add the "Published At" column to the view and you'll see exactly which OU the object is from (and you can also sort nicely on this column).

My biggest pet peeve with ADUC is petty but annoying.

 

If I'm in a hurry and use the ADUC to find an object, I select the domain, select the find option, conduct my search, find the object then go look for the object tab to see where it is....  NO...  the object field is only avaialbe in the advanced features.  So kill everything, click advanced features, go though the steps again...

 

The location of an object is important!  Lets put it everywhere and not try to hide it!

 

Cheers

How much control would you like over the formatting if any? How do you visualize configuring the formatting, drag and drop type GUI interface or specify via parameters in some control location?

Agree - would be nice if extra attributes could be exposed via the UI more readily (e.g. employeeID)

I think we discussed this one over an excellent burger last fall- I need to be able to write new property pages alot more easily than I do now dicking around with COM and CPP (two things I don't know much about).

 

Would be nice to be able to shift click computers and do add to group

 

Shift click group members and remove from group

 

Choose columns displayed in the group members view (here we use employee IDs from HR for the CN which is what it displays).

 

Have the GUI remember columns I chose to show

 

Thanks,

Brian Desmond

Well, ok, lets do this.

Everyone who has an idea for a change to ADUC post to the ideas to this
thread. Don't be shy, you may have thought of something no one else would
think of that once seeing it would go this is very cool. Then when the
thread seems to die (or some point after that when I catch up :oP ) I will
summarize to make sure I understand and then post to LadyBug as improvements
that could be made. Also, you may or may not be shocked to hear that many of
the folks working on the stuff in Redmond actually watch this list on a
regular basis too so they may see it directly. I know the conversation we
had previously about suggested improvements to AD was watched pretty closely
and generated several DCRs without me even arguing with anyone.

So let's hear it. First item on the table is different icons flagging
accounts (and I am stating this generically) that are not currently live.
This includes disabled, locked, expired passwords, expired accounts? Would
this be better to add maybe as additional columns that you could tell the
GUI to sort on? Or the icons are best?

Note to Dean: This is D's bailywick now isn't it? I think I recall us having
this conversation at BB.

I believe it would be helpful if different icons could be used for disabled
accounts, expired account, expired password, etc.

Philosophical question really. How do you want the GUI to present things to
you. The developers or whomever wrote the spec for the developers didn't
feel it should. You also have to ask if accounts with locked passwords
should show up that way and define if you mean expired accounts or expired
passwords on accounts and whether or not you would differentiate them in
that marking.

Shouldn't expired accounts show up with a red X just like a disabled
account?
