Hi all



How could I, using adfind, really useful tool by the way
respect to joe!!, find all users who have an expiry date set on their account.
What would the name of that attribute be?





Thanks in advance



Regards

As Neil indicated, you can look at accountExpires
attribute. Adfind will decode that to a date for you if you use the -tdc switch.
Unfortunately at the present time you can't specify a date in the query to
adfind in the query and have it give you the objects matching. However, there is
another tool on the website called findexpacc which will find expired accounts
and expired passwords and can be set to tell you what accounts/passwords are
expired in X days. You could put in say 10000 for that value and it will tell
you all accounts that will be expired in the next 10000 days.


findexpacc /?

Peter,

Not trying to oversimplify things “
but a really easy way to find most attributes, it to put a really obvious value
in the attrib for a specific user, and examine the object with LDP or ADSI edit
afterwards and see what got populated.



As such, there is no expiry date attrib
that I™m aware of “ you can calculate it though - 

Check out this newsgroup thread: http://tinyurl.com/2n8ju


Sorry for the indirect answer mate.

That
would be "accountExpires", I believe. The value is stored in INT8 format so I'm
not sure how to interpret the result :(

The accountExpires attribute seems to be set on every user
object, but if the expiry date is set to "Never", the value of the attribute is
either 0 or 9223372036854775807. Anything in between means that the expiry date
is actually set to something.
