Documenting the Active Directory?

[Sarge]

Hi,

im trying to find anything that can help in documenting the entire AD in 2000/2003 server, so i can have a record of all computers, users and their profiles etc.

Anyone know or use such things, or will i have to go through every policy setting and write them down

Thanks for anyhelp u can provide

You could always use the "Export List" feature of AD. Access it under "Actions" or using the icon at the top of the window in AD.

cool thanks, that works ok i guess

Comes out a big disorganised on some (maybe because im only saving it in a txt file, might try saving in word or something on a test build later in vmware), still its a little easier than going into each policy or OU and typing the settings up manually.

You can use Group Policy Management Console to export all your policies but to document a AD you can use VISIO Professional 2003 ...
