Active Directory Administration - Invaluable (4/4 people found this helpful)

As a non-programmer, System Administrator and Infrastructure consultant, I found this book immensely valuable. It enabled me to write a multifunctional VB application to verify:
Locked users
User details
Group details
and six other invaluable administrative tasks (so far). These tasks are not normally easily accomplished in a manner or format which can be easily used in a report or that can be copied and pasted. In a simple way, the examples helped me to piece together most of the necessary modules.

Now the adminstrators simply choose the options which create a report and then send the report to their managers.

All achieved from Robbies book!
Excellent book

5/5 stars

An Excellent Resource (2/4 people found this helpful)

An invaluable resource for the Windows 2000 or 2003 administrator this is a book you will want on your desk at all times to cover transferring fsmo roles to writing various admin scripts.
Overall another gem from O'Reilly!

5/5 stars

Great book - with lots of ready to use scripts (recipies)... (5/5 people found this helpful)

This book covers almost every scripting aspect of working with active directory. I was in the process of creating a scripted schema extension, when I stumbled over Robbie's website www.rallenhome.com. I immediately bought this book and voila everything worth knowing about schema extensions was ready at hand (In both VBScript, Perl and also LDIFDE examples). IMHO it should be a part of every sysadmins/consultants library ;-)
