_AD_IsMemberOf_ - (Moved)


Recommended Posts

Hello All,

It has been a long time since I posted, role changes etc involving work and I finally am back to modifying a program I write in AutoIt that has AD integration. I am at a point where we are modifying our structure where I am validating users access via what Distribution List they belong to in our AD OU's. What I have run into is the OU is a sub OU of a sub OU now. Meaning: CN=team, OU=DL, OU=Groups, DC=business.com(working), is now CN=Team, OU=SubDL, OU=DL, OU=Groups, DC=business.com (Not working).  Just curious if the AD functionality should be able to read it or maybe I am missing something?

 

ElseIf _AD_IsMemberOf("CN=Team,OU=Distribution Lists,OU=Groups,DC=business,DC=com", $sFQDN_User) Then
#works for primary Distro

ElseIf _AD_IsMemberOf("CN=Team,OU=SubDL,OU=Distribution Lists,OU=Groups,DC=business,DC=com", $sFQDN_User) Then
#fails for subOU of DL

How I am accessing AD to get the information:

_AD_Open()
    Global $aUser = _AD_GetObjectsInOU("", "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(samaccountname=" & @UserName & "))", 2, "ADsPath,Displayname,distinguishedName")
    Global $sDisplayName0 = $aUser[1][1] ; Displayname
    ;MsgBox(0,"", $sDisplayName0)
    If StringLeft($sDisplayName0, 2) = "9-" Then
        $Displaynamestring = StringTrimLeft($sDisplayName0, 2)
        $Displaynamestring1 = StringTrimRight($Displaynamestring, 6)

The error code generated is a 1 with a 0 extended. I assume it is because it cannot find the SubOU.

 

Thanks for any assistance.

@error = 1 for _AD_IsMemberOf means that the specified group does not exist.
You are sure the group exists and the FQDN is written correctly?

This was something you helped me write back in the day, only recently did our distribution lists jump 1 more sub OU as well as we shifted to a multitenant domain where some are suggesting certain OUs are not able to seen in others. Our DNS team doesn't think thats the issue that maybe I am writing the OU tags incorrectly, which I suspect might be the case as I am able to access the OU in Groups but not the next 1 under Distribution Lists. In theory though shouldn't CN=name, OU=Subsubou, OU=Subou, OU=Groups, DC=Comp.com be accurate?

Are there any special characters in the FQDN? This are:

"\/#,+<>;=

When you run _AD_Example_GetOUTreeView.au3 do you see both OUs?

I am running it now waiting for it to finish populating my information.

 

My concern though is that I can get to a subOU already but not 1 more down. That is what is causing my concern :/

 

EDIT

 

I confirmed the subOU is listed in the _AD_Example_GetOUTreeView.au3

Great! So lets do a simple check:

#include <AD.au3>
_AD_Open()
Global $iReturn = _AD_ObjectExists("your FQDN goes here")
MsgBox(0, "Result", "Return value=" & $iReturn & ", @error=" & @error & ", @extended=" & @extended)
