Thanks!!!

Now I just have to figure out what to do with it as that guid belongs to
my "Exchange Enterprise Servers"

I assume that the ADC is trying to modify the group, but since that is
an AD function I don't know why the ADC is trying to do it.  We are part
of a very large Govt org that has yet to complete the upgrade.  Our
Admin group is completely updated, but we still maintain one 5.5 server
at the request of the exchange organization admins.

Any ideas?

Subject: RE: Find an object in AD by GUID?

Since you only have 2 objects, this shouldn't be too bad. There are
probably ways to further automate it if you keep plugging away.

First, convert the objectGuid to a hex string. Split the guid from the
the ADC log entry into pairs, like this:
A8 BE B3 A2 C3 1B 42 B2 B8 43 93 47 9F 02 CB 41

If you assign indices to the pairs like this, 1=A8, 2=BE, 3=B3, 4=A2 and
then rearrange to this index order
4 3 2 1 6 5 8 7 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
You'll end up with
A2 B3 BE A8 1B C3 B2 42 B8 43 93 47 9F 02 CB 41

Now go to www.joeware.net/win32/index.html and download ADFind. Unzip
it, and from a command line run C:\adfind -b dc=yourdomain,dc=com -s
subtree -f "objectguid=\A2\B3\BE\A8\1B\C3\B2\42\B8\43\93\47\9F\02\CB\41"

Make sure to replace "dc=yourdomain,dc=com" with your domain. You'll
need to include the "\" delimitters as well, and you may want to pipe
the output to a text file. Open the text file and you should have a
bunch of attributes for the object, including Display Name and others
that will be easy to identify the object by.

Subject: Find an object in AD by GUID?

I have two objects in AD that my ADC can't modify, but it won't tell me
anything about them accept their GUID as in:

***Begin Log***
LDAP Modify on directory mygc.mydomain.com for entry
'<GUID=A8BEB3A2-C31B-42B2-B843-93479F02CB41>' was unsuccessful with
error:[0x34] Unavailable.  DC=mydomain,DC=com ***End Log 

MS suggests that it is a problem with unmatched smtp addresses, but I
can't figure out how to find the object to manually correct any
incorrect entries.
I suspect I could find it with LDP if I knew more about it.  Any
suggestions?
