How to find computers that have authenticated the Active Directory for a period of time.

[Guest]

Hi All,

I want to find all those computers in domain who have not authenticated to
the Active Directory for the last six months.

There are more than 800 entries of computer names in the Active Directory
when in real the active ones should be less than 600.

I exported the AD to a CSV File, but no successful pattern with "last logon"
and "Account Expires" Attribute.

Any guidance to the solution, Please?

Thanks
IK

IK,

I think that you can use one or both of the following
utilities:

http://www.joeware.com
http://www.ladava.com

At Joe's site simply go to the free Win32 C++ based tools
and select GetUserInfo.

At Matjaz's site ( in Slovenian ) simply click on the
UTILITIES hyperlink ( in the upper leftish corner ) and
select ASInactiveObjects.

HTH,

Cary
