Hoping somebody can tell me what I am missing here. ADfind search for
one of my generic logins:

P:\utils>adfind -f samaccountname=laptopuser

AdFind V01.49.00.00cpp Joe Richards ([email protected]) February 2015

Using server: <someDC>
Directory: Windows Server 2008 R2
Base DN: DC=<this, that and the other>

dn:CN=Laptop User....
>homeDirectory: \\<server>\users\BookBagAdmin

Yet, when I search for a homeDirectory that matches, it fails:

P:\utils>adfind -f homeDirectory=\\<server>\users\BookBagAdmin

AdFind V01.49.00.00cpp Joe Richards ([email protected]) February 2015

Using server: <someDC>
Directory: Windows Server 2008 R2
Base DN: <this, that and the other>


0 Objects returned


So how come the 2nd search failed, if I am filtering for an attribute
that was returned by the first search? I've done lots of searches this
way, without fail.

Yet for some reason, I can't search for this one particular homeDirectory.

Clues as to why? It's gotta be me misunderstanding something ...
