That summarizes my initial plan. I'd like the OS detection to take place at
program startup and that feature to not be hidden unless your running
windows.

What Microsoft specific tools do you recommend? I tend to use VBScript or
the Mono LDAP library for .net for scripting or programming active
directory. I find JXplorer the best tool for browsing a directory to
determine what LDAP queries my code should make. I'm looking into Apache
Directory Studio, and it seems liek thats a more robust, but heavier tool.
JXplorer seems more suited to my needs.
I'm organizing a talk (not to far from CA headquaters incidently) at the
November LIPHP meeting, so I'm revaluating all the LDAP client tools. If you
can reccomend a better ldap browser/editor for active directory let me know.
I will look at it.
