Title: [ActiveDir] LDAP query struggle

Ok, so you are trying to find what users have Benjamin as a publicDelegate. That is my B scenerio I listed.

 

Do this

 

adfind -gc -b "" -f name="Benjamin Ortega" publicdelegatesBL

 

If you want more detailed info about each of the users he is a delegate for then we can look at some attribute scoped query magic (-ASQ switch).

Here's what I tried:

 

(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(publicDelegates=Benjamin*))

 

I have a mailbox-enabled user named Benjamin Ortega.

I figured that using Benjamin* would grab the user(s) that have him set as having Send on behalf permission.

I KNOW I have users defined thus but the query returns nothing.

 

Steve Linehan mentions something about the full DN....

 

Guess I better 'fess up and say that I'm an LDAP rookie and am not sure what he means....

 

But, with some thought about it, here's what worked after I figured out the full DN of the user in question:

 

(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(publicDelegates=CN=Benjamin Ortega,CN=Users,DC=cg-engrs,DC=com))

 

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Now to read joe's post....

 

Thanks

instead of (objectCategory=user) use (objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)

Subject: [ActiveDir] LDAP query struggle

I'd like to create an LDAP query to return a list of users
that have the "Send on behalf" field populated in the
"Exchange General / Delivery Options" properties in ADUC.

I cannot seems to make sense of the syntax of the query...

(&(objectCategory=user)(publicDelegates=<user I'm searching for>))

Is there something I'm missing or can someone provide the correct
query format to do what I need?

Thanks
