We are setting up our lab as the lab.company.com
domain. I have an export of our production environment using

ldifde -f Exportuser.ldf -s Server1 -t 3268 -d
"dc=Export,dc=com" -p subtree -r
"(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=User)(givenname=*))" -l
"cn,givenName,objectclass,sAMAccountName" . In
the file it references our production domain. Can I just replace that reference
with our Lab domain?

Thanks,

Thanks Al. The lab will be isolated, we are trying to replicate the production environment as close as possible. We will use it to test schema extensions, new apps like MIIS, etc. I was under the impression the accounts would be created but set as disabled with a null password. Please advise you have any ideas on how to make this smoother.

Thanks again,


Travis Abrams

Yep. You can even have LDIF do it for you if you wanted. ;)
Not sure you have the information you need to create the new users though. You may want to check that. (for example, what are you planning to do about surname or passwords or enabled vs. disabled accounts?)

Any particular reason why you are creating this on the a network that can talk to the production network? I don't know the purpose of this lab, but if you want true pre-production lab it might make more sense to use something virtual and isolated. It may be that you have that already and this is something different for all I know.
