Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Where's that account being used?
It's been a while but I used to use Small Wonder's Service Explorer ( It's since been taken over by ScriptLogic) and it was was excellent for this, also gets scheduled tasks and it is definitely worth a peek. You can change the password on all those services (and tasks) at once with it, delete services, set parameters etc.. http://www.scriptlogic.com/products/serviceexplorer/ HTH -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of AdamT Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2006 9:22 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] Where's that account being used? Dear fountain of knowledge, We've inherited a particularly messy AD structure, and we're now trying to find out where a particular account is in use. There's around 80 servers in the domain and 3000 workstations, and this account appears to be used for pretty much anything that wants to log on as a service, or anyone who wants domain admin privs. Is there any kind of audit utility to scan servers and see which services are using the account, and ideally - any kind of monitoring package to flag up an alert each time the account is used to, say, map a drive or connect to a SQL db? -- AdamT "A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything." - Nietzsche List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.activedir.org/ml/threads.aspx List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.activedir.org/ml/threads.aspx
