Oh well, most kinda fall under the ones I mentioned, such as just including
other fields in the property sheets, MMC2 would allow me to set them as I
wish so I figure it's not as important. :P

Thanks for what you did submit. Note that the ones you don't submit will
most likely not be implemented. ;o)

OK, Here goes:

1. Ability to bulk set passwords, I have 6 generic limited access accounts
for users that forget their smartcards, but the passwords are generated on a
daily basis, and I just hate setting it on all 6, I suppose a simple script
would do this, but I would love to see integrated so that I do not have to
modify the schema display specifiers. 

2. Easily add fields to the ADUC property pages, I believe this was
mentioned in being MMC2.

3. Easily add items to the context menu without having to manually edit the
display specifier of the schema.

I have hundreds of more ideas, but not enough time to put them all down.

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?
