In Windows 2000, you can browse the Active Directory by accessing: My
Network Places -> Entire Network -> Entire Contents -> Directory

It seems that the "Directory" object is not available in Windows XP / 2003
server. Can anyone tell me how to browse the Active Directory from an XP
Professional or server 2003 system?

Thanks...

Richard:

1) Verify "Show common tasks in folders" is enabled
Use Control Panel: Folder Options: General tab

2) Dbl click on My Network Places
Click on Search Active Directory
