AD Object Properties

[Guest]

Can anyone help me find out where a list a active directory object properties can be found? I realise that properties can be added/changed/deleted from objects in active directory, but I would like to find a list of default/common/most used properties (like name, address, GUID, etc)

Hi,
you can find Active Directory schema documentation here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/adschema/adschema/active_directory_schema.asp?frame=true

(watch for line breaks).

Additionally you can see all properties and their names if you use ADSIEdit
(from support tools) or freeware tools like BeaverTail ADSI browser or
LDAPBrowser.

You might want to have a look at my Beavertail ADSI Browser - it's
entirely free, written in C#, and open-source, and it will show you
your AD objects in their AD hierachy, and the attributes and their
values for those objects.

http://adsi.mvps.org/adsi/CSharp/beavertail.html

You can download both the .NET executable, as well as the full C#
source code, from that page.

Enjoy!
