Exporting User Info

[Guest]

Is it possible to automate the process of exporting active directory user info to a CSV and automatically importing it to an exchange public folder

I'm trying to create a company directory every time a new user is created in active directory all the users should be able to see the new employee information, what's the best way to do it

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes, you can, though I have some hesitations that this is the optimal
way to accomplish it. You can use CSVDE.exe to import/export information
from AD in comma-separated values format, see:

You can also make use of the built-in search capabilities. If your
clients run Win2K they have the option to search the domain when
selecting it in My Network Places\Entire Directory. In WinXP and above
this is also possible though you need to create a shortcut for them to
open this dialog.

It really depends on the size of your organization, but if you have a
solid amount of users then a small intranet web site would be easier to
use for them.
