Thanks for you reply! Yes, I have looked at the example that are included with the tool. I am new to RBDL and having hard time coming up with the second portion of the string. Here is the situation: We have DL for each server that holds everyone on that server. Most of the "Special Mailboxs" are on a Recipients Container called "Special Mailboxes". I can add everyone on each server to the DL fine by adding to the "administrative note" in (exchange admin): (RBDL=LDAP://ServerName/o=Acme/ou=Northamerica/cn=Recipients>; (&(objectClass=organizationalPerson)(st=CA)); cn,adspath; subtree
Note: Not all "Special Mailboxs" perfix letter are the same and they are not created on the same server. I'm thinking of doing an export and import of the "Special Mailboxs" to modify their attirbute to a common name so that the query string will reject the common name in the "Special Mailboxs" attribute, preventing from adding to each server's DL. Do you know what the query would be for rejecting attribute? or Is there a better way to do this? Hope this was not too confusing.
