Active Directory UDF - Help & Support

The OU is named like this OU=HPXXXX,DC=Microsoft,DC=COM?

[Syed23]

ok. I have a idea... can i use _AD_GetObjectsInOU() to collect the machine account details from specific OU? based on that i can find the what is the computer model if possible?

In our environment we have HP laptops and compaq laptops as well. i need to collect that information using any AD function.

Please let me know if i am not clear!

Thanks in advance!

[water]

Sure. Specify the OU where you want to start as parameter 1 and set parameter 3 to 1 to only search one level.

[Syed23]

Do you have an example for me? ... i tried to modify your _AD_Getallobjectsinou example... but that does not works for me.. so poor on my modifications.... Please if you don't mind can you tell me how to do that! sorry for troubling you....

[water]

Change line

Global $sOU = "" ; FQDN of the OU where to start

to the OU where you want to start

Global $sOU = "OU=HPXXXX,DC=Microsoft,DC=COM" ; FQDN of the OU where to start

Global $sOU = "OU=HPXXXX,DC=Microsoft,DC=COM" ; FQDN of the OU where to start

Thanks for the help Water! that returns the distinguished name as complete od detail. That OU detail does not contail computer model details. What could be the reason?

[water]

It's not clear to me what you mean by "computer model details". Where is this information stored? With the computer account?

The _AD_Example_GetOUTreeView script only returns the OU tree but not the contained objects.

Do you want to see the objects (computers, users ...) in the OUs as well?

Yes if it is possible that will be good! Regarding the computer model detail.. i am using the laptop HP6910P model. i am not sure whether this details will get stored in AD. do you have any idea on this ?

[water]

Something like this?

When I have a look at our AD I see no model type information stored in the computer account.

Here is the extended example code that lets you create a TreeView with all OUs + all objects in the OUs.

Water,

I have this script, but it is not detecting the value as an array.

_AD_Open()
$ADGroup = _AD_RecursiveGetMemberOf(@UserName)
If IsArray($ADGroup) Then
  _ArrayDisplay($ADGroup)
EndIf
_AD_Close()

I have even tried this, but it doesn't bring up any display of security group membership.

_AD_Open()
$ADGroup = _AD_RecursiveGetMemberOf(@UserName)
_ArrayDisplay($ADGroup)
_AD_Close()

Any ideas what's wrong? I am using the latest 1.2 version of the UDF. If I ask it to return an error code, I receive the number 1.

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

your example script works fine here.

Error code 1 means: "Specified user, group or computer does not exist" - Strange

Do you run version 1.2.0 or version 1.2.1.0?

[jazzyjeff]

I have version 1.2.0

[jazzyjeff]

I am running this script on a 64bit version of Windows 7. Is there a compatibility issue with this version of Windows and the recursive function?

With my account the script does work fine, but with a user account that has only standard user rights it does not.

[water]

There is no known problem with version 1.2.0.

Does the example script _AD_RecursiveGetMemberOf.au3 work for you?

[water]

You could try to run your script as 32 bit by adding "#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=n" at the top of your script.

[jazzyjeff]

Also, I have compiled it as a 32bit and 64bit App, but it doesn't make a difference either way.

[water]

Can you please check if _AD_Open returns an error?

[jazzyjeff]

_AD_Open returns a number 4.

[jazzyjeff]

The @extended returns a 0...
