Re: LDAP query information

Can you please help me in creating a LDAP Query which will pull the

Object
tab information like 'Canonical name of the object' & 'Object class -
Created
& Modified' etc. I was able to pull most of the information except for
'Canonical name of the object' which could not be created using 'Saved
Queries' column in Active Directory. I can create one using 'custom
search'
which needs me to input an LDAP query for the above objects which I am not
aware of.
It would be really helpful is someone can post the LDAP query.


Hi,

I'm don't know how you can retrieve these values in ADUC, but the LDAP query
for computer objects would be:

(objectCategory=computer)

The attributes you refer to are:

sAMAccountName (NetBIOS name of the computer)
objectClass (multi-valued)
whenCreated
whenChanged
canonicalName (Constructed, also called operational, meaning not saved in AD
but computed when requested)
machineRole

I hope this helps.
