Seems like a slow day on the list, so thought I would pass this along in case it might save people some time. I know there are bunch of other ways to enumerate the list of domain controllers in a domain, but I never knew you could enumerate the domain controllers in the forest with repadmin:
repadmin/ viewlist *
Will give you output like this
DSA_LIST[1] = dc1.contoso.com
DSA_LIST[2] = dc2.contoso.com
DSA_LIST[3] = dc3.contoso.com
DSA_LIST[4] = dc4.contoso.com
And you can clean it up a little like this:
for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %i in ('repadmin /viewlist *') do @echo %i
Also found that you can use it for an LDAP query:
repadmin /viewlist dc1.contos.com ncobj:domain: /subtree
/filter:"(&(objectclass=user)(samaccountname=jdo*))"
Amazing what you lean when you actually read the help file:
