More important going for script is flexibility. You can play around like anything than relaying on readymade applications. I am looking for script because in our AD, almost 4000 ID's do not have owner information. We just want to find out last logon stamp and get rid of them.
Many thanks all, specially joe for writing oldcmp tool..

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. Michael J.
