I don't believe the "comment" attribute is exposed in ADUC, but the "info" attribute is. Not all attributes are visible in ADUC.

Sent by: [email protected] Hmmm ... using ADSI Edit, for my user account, I see that the attribute "comment" is not set. But the attribute "info" is set, and has the value that I see in ADU&C under "Notes" ... That's why I am confused. Can anyone shed some light as to where I am going wrong? (this is for Win 2008 R2) BTW, what program showed you that information for the attribute in a GUI tab like that?

ADSI shows it as "info", which I don't see as that name in that list. And clicking on a few of the attributes that have "info" in the name returns information that doesn't seem to list maximum size of the entry, at least for the 3 or 4 I spot-checked. ----------------------------------------- This message, and any attachments to it, may contain information that is privileged, confidential, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
