Sooner or later, though, most admins face challenges that cannot be easily group done - like as possible with 2003 (or rather ironically NT domains, using usrmgr). For example - having to use conditional logic, or grabbing things from the structure of AD as you write the particular properties. Largely it's inevitable - and I find it slightly humorous that many seem to attempt to delay the inevitable, and eventually have to face up to it. I see the reluctance, and the attempts by other means - but sooner or later... s'like death and taxes. In short, it's a lucky (or perhaps that should be unlucky) or rare admin that's not going to have to do something with ADSI at some point. The realisation of this, and overriding the denial would probably make all this easier in the long run <shrug> Neil > -----Original Message----- > From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Nick Smith > Sent: 08 December 2004 11:35 > To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [THIN] Re: OT: Bulk changes in AD > > Little-known but *so* important reason for upgrading to > Windows 2003.
