I have been trying for some time to create a shortcut that
will allow users to open the AD in Windows Explorer at a
specific OU. I've got as far as a shortcut to open the
root directory using the following:

%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e ,/root,"::{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-
A2D7-08002B30309D}\Entire Network\::{FE1290F0-CFBD-11CF-
A330-00AA00C16E65}"

Fine as far as it goes, but users then have to expand the
domain and the OU is mixed in with all the built in
administrative OUs - this doesn't bother me greatly but
confuses the hell out of them. I'd like to open the
explorer window two more levels down (i.e. \domain\ou).
I'm sure it must involve the use of further class
definitions, but can't find out what.

Anyone have any ideas?

Many thanks

Ian
 
I too am trying to implement this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I cannot even get as far as a shortcut to the entire directory.
