AD Gurus,

Before I embarked on a Google search,
I thought I might get some opinions from this list.

What resources (utils, whitepapers etc)
have people been using to clean up an AD infrastructure?

I can go into more detail if anyone
is interested...basically all of our DC's have tons of warnings and errors
in the event logs.

Thanks,

A couple of weeks ago i 'attended' a webinar from NetPro called:

"16 Steps to a Healthier and Happier Active Directory"
http://www.netpro.com/company/events.cfm

It is a very good overview of the tasks involved in getting AD to smile.

It seems like the link from NetPro's website sends you to
http://searchwindowssecurity.bitpipe.com/webcasts but i don't see it
archived there ... maybe Gil can chime in with a location?
Slides here:

http://www.netpro.com/forum/files/Sixteen_Simple_Steps.pdf

good luck,

john

The link on our page is screwed up, and so is the TechTarget search
engine. I'll post a working link as soon as I find it.

It depends. If I am in a hurry, I just put it in my trunk and go to the
nearest drive-through car wash. If I have time on my hand, I drive it to the
friendly neighborhood Laundromat. Either way, it comes back clean.

OK, a smiley should go here. The point is "Clean AD" is as vague as vague
could be. What do you want to clean today?

AD Gurus,

Before I embarked on a Google search, I thought I might get some opinions
from this list.

What resources (utils, whitepapers etc) have people been using to clean up an
AD infrastructure?

I can go into more detail if anyone is interested...basically all of our DC's
have tons of warnings and errors in the event logs.

Thanks,

Jbl
