AD HOUSEKEEPING

[Guest]

Our domain functional level is currently at Windows 2000 mixed mode. We are
going through a technical refresh and are upgrading all our servers to
Windows 2003, when the DCs have been upgraded we will move to Server 2003
mode. In the meantime we are trying to do some long overdue housekeeping and
want to get rid of all inactive user accounts and computer accounts.

There is plenty advice on how to accomplish this in Server 2003 mode using
dsquery etc but we are stuck with Windows 2000 DCs at the moment. Does
anyone know of a script or a tool that we can run against our AD that will
produce a report of when user accounts and computer accounts last logged on
or were used.

We have tried to use the free utility oldcmp without success. Any advice or
leads would be really, really appreciated.

Many thanks - Chris

What was the lack of success you had with oldcmp? Was it because it
isn't doing last logon, instead doing pwdlastset on 2K?
