watch out for linked attributes (back-links and forward links) when exporting info from e.g. user objects you will get for example the memberOf attribute. However, you will not be able to write it back (because it is owned by the system) as for that you need to write the corresponding member attribute of the group specified in the memberOf attribute of the user step 12 from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840001/ <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840001/> Met vriendelijke groeten / Kind regards, Ing.

I wrote a script to do an ldifde daily and set it as a scheduled task. I wrote another script that will take the information that ldifde exports to re-populate the re-animated objects.

I personally prefer to reanimate objects over restoring them. When you do a restore there is always a possibility you can hurt yourself pretty bad. Reanimation is much less dangerous but if the info isn't there and you don't know what to populate manually and you need the old info, you don't have a lot of choice. joe ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] On Behalf Of Teo De Las Heras Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 12:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] Reanimate or Authoritatively Restore objects In reference to the following KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840001/ In a Domain and Forest that is at a 2003 functional level, is it better to reanimate objects from the deleted items container or authoritatively restore them?
