RE: [ActiveDir] Distribution list Maintenance. Policy dilemma

[Ramon Linan]

That’s an idea although I am not very concern about getting the request for adding a new account/contact to a DL. My concern is to maintain the DL, in most of the cases the DL would have contacts not AD users, and you can’t put expiration on contacts. So, how do I force/remind the managers to notify me whenever a contact should not longer be in the DL?   Rezuma   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2006 1:38 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Distribution list Maintenance. Policy dilemma   You’ve got to use an automated system (web based usually) where an employee requests the contractor account/contact and puts an expiration on it.   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ramon Linan Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2006 12:26 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Distribution list Maintenance. Policy dilemma    Hi,   I have Department managers asking me to create DL in exchange of people who don’t work in the company…   There is not technical problem to do that, but I am finding out, that the previous guy was doing that via contacts in AD. The problem is that in this business, a consultant will work one day for you and next to your competitor.   My question is, what is the common practice in terms DL. Does anyone know a good way of maintaining them? Most of the time, I don’t get notified when we no longer work with a consultant.   How do you guys deal with DL maintenance? .Any suggestion?
