Fair enough! I didn't realize it costs so much these days.
We got in early and also got an EDU discount to boot.
It costs me only $250 a year and saves a lot of time by avoiding
debugging some script.
My objective is to administer the AD, not write code. I'm new to this
list and perhaps haven't quite gotten the jist of it yet.
In my case, it pays for itself each fall by allowing mass creation of
new user accounts for incoming students with random generated passwords,
Home Directories, etc using a simple file as input.
Other uses are just gravy.
I'll shut up and just listen for a while.

There's also the benefit that you learn more about how it all works;
then when you want a report which isn't included in the toolkit you have
you can just run it up yourself (perhaps asking for a little help along
the way)

Subject: Re: [ActiveDir] Find last logon for ID
It strikes me that y'all are trying to cobble together a bicycle. Why
not use a car?
AD Toolkit from Javelina Software has last logon as one of many
pre-configured reports.
You run it against and OU or entire domain and it returns last logon
info as well as which DC handled it.
Saving a report as a CSV file is also a standard option.
I sometime use it for machine account last logon info to find those
which may have left with Elvis.
