rohm rohm Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-07-11 Posts: 7	hi, is it possible to create a kix-script to configure the fields in active directory? For example i have an existing user and i want to change some user-rights or the email-adress and some other fields of the active directory like the phone number... frank

Glenn i have written a test-script integrating your udf-example but it doesn´t work. where could be the mistake? when i am testing it the result will be: result: ADSIUserInfo() this is a cuttet example of the script: $test="ADSIUserInfo()" ?"result: $test" ;; ;;====================================================================== ;; ;;FUNCTION ADSIUserInfo() ;; ;;ACTION Get or Set a user attribute via ADSI ;; ;;AUTHOR Glenn Barnas . . . If Not $_AValid Exit 87 EndIf ; no valid values EndIf Exit @ERROR EndFunction thank you for your answer Frank

Glenn Barnas Glenn Barnas KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-01-28 Posts: 4401 Loc: New Jersey	The following works: Code: 'Result - UserDN: ' ADSIUserInfo() @CRLF ; entire ADSIUserInfo UDF inserted here... This displays the userDN string for the current user. You then use this DN string (or adapt it for another similar user) to query or set the additional attributes. The UserName must be in the UserDN format. The UDF is typically called without args to obtain a UserDN, and then called with the UserDN to query or define the attribute. Make sure you include the entire UDF, unmodified, somewhere in your script. Most of us place UDFs at the end of the script, or use CALL statements to load them at the beginning. I prefer to embed the UDFs at the end since they will always be available and "frozen" in a working configuration. Using external UDFs can cause an app to break when a UDF is updated and all dependent scripts aren't tested. Glenn _________________________ Actually I am a Rocket Scientist! $\:D$
