Code: ; == Return the distinguishedName for the computer =================== $aAttributes = "distinguishedName" $sADsPath = "LDAP://"+GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE").Get("defaultNamingContext") $strFilter = "(&(objectClass=Computer)(Name="+@WKSTA+"))" $aResults = fnLDAPQuery($aAttributes,$sADsPath,$strFilter) @ERROR " \| " @SERROR ? For Each $Result in $aResults $Result ? Next Chris - the above code works for the DN of the current workstation, but for some reason I can't get the same info for the currently logged in user using this code that I grabbed from another thread: Code: ; == Return the distinguishedName for the user =================== $aAttributes = "distinguishedName" $sADsPath = "LDAP://"+GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE").Get("defaultNamingContext") $strFilter = "(&(objectClass=User)(Name="+@USERID+"))" $aResults = fnLDAPQuery($aAttributes,$sADsPath,$strFilter) @ERROR " \| " @SERROR ? For Each $Result in $aResults $Result ? Next I get a 0 \| Operation Completed Successfully, but no information is displayed. Any ideas? I am thinking of just going this route because it appears to work on the users that are having issues, and I would much rather stay within KiX rather than shelling out to VBS in the event things don't work - which is what I am doing now. _________________________ -- oobnuker - .KIX hack - no really.
