Thanks for the links Neil, I've been looking for some useful AD tools
for ages. I didn't actually know M$ had freely released an AD browser.

Regarding AD setup, I think I am going to embark on this shortly. If
any future versions of the AD user directory are to be released in the
future, I would strongly recommend making the server details + user/
group queries editable via the settings section of the admin. This is
particularly useful in environments where the testing / live instances
have different paths to the server or are using different servers
completely. It also allows server admins to enter details in, taking
the load of developers to hard-code them into the application.
