Corrected a problem that limited display of controlled objects.

AD:Edit Selected Multivalued Attribute
Corrected the display of existing values when editing attribute.

AD:Move selected Object(s) (Container to move to must be specified with Display Service Canonical Name for Move Operation
Corrected a problem with moving objects with commas embedded in the CN.

The following seven services are now properly treated as returning Boolean values:

  • AD:Display if selected Object has Domain Administrator Status (adminCount set to 1)

  • AD:Display if selected Object is critical system object (IsCriticalSystemObject attribute is TRUE)

  • AD:Display Computer's Role: Schema Master Status (whether or not is Schema Master of Forest)

  • AD:Display Computer's Role: Domain Naming Master Status (whether or not is Domain Naming Master of Forest)

  • AD:Display Computer's Role: PDC Emulator Master Status (whether or not is PDC Emulator Master of Domain)

Removed error messages when Output to File (OTF) is enabled for TreeViews with multiple services at the same level under a common parent service.

[UPDATES]
The rule service formerly titled "AD:Display Object's Distinguished Name (Canonical Name) (For Move/Copy Operation {Button Service})" has been renamed "AD:RULE:Display Object's Distinguished Name (Canonical Name) (For Move/Copy Operation {Button Service})" to more clearly indicate its function as a helper service for the "AD:Move" and "AD:Copy" button services.

AD:Erase ALL values of selected Attribute for selected Active Directory Object(s), use Manual Entry to select Attribute
Can now link to a 'AD:Display Who Am I (distinguished name of current user)' Text box to select the user. Removed a pop-up message when targeted attribute is already empty.

GC:Display number of USER objects in selected path
Can now select a domain root in the 'Connect Service to:' field, in addition to the container and Organizational Unit options previously available.

[NEW]
AD:Edit:Append value to text-based Attribute This button service will append text to the specified attribute of selected users. The text-based attribute to modify should be specified in the "Manual Entry Text" field in the Designer.

AD:Edit:Prepend value to text-based Attribute This button service will prepend text to the specified attribute of selected users. The text-based attribute to modify should be specified in the "Manual Entry Text" field in the Designer.

AD:Include in the List, Home Directory Path for use during Create User + Req'd attr.(specify full UNC path such as "\\FS1\share\path", SAMname will be appended) Use this service in a Dropdown List or ListView to display selectable home directory paths in a user creation applet. Rules are used to specify the UNC path(s) of the available home directory location(s). Upon user creation the home directory will be created using the SAM Account Name of the user account in the selected parent directory. The user will be granted permissions to create, delete, and change objects within the Home Directory, but will not be able to assign permissions to his or her Home Directory or delete the Home Directory itself.

AD:Include in the List, thisGroupforMembershipaddduringCreateUser+Req'dattr.(specifyfullLDAPname,example:"CN=MediaGroup,DC=Staff,DC=local") This service can be used in a ListView to specify group membership upon user creation with a button service. Groups should be specified by distinguished name (full LDAP name) in the Rules for the service.

AD:RULE:For Edit and Display fields: Do not show '<unknown>' where value is undefined When this service is present in a Text box on a window with edit and display services, they will show an empty field instead of '' when a value has not been defined.

NT:List All Shares including Ownership and Permission Data This list service will display all shares defined on the selected server, and can be followed in a ListView or TreeView with services that document permissions and other data. See the Console applet "ACL Documentation per File System Share" [fslistShareACLp1.dsr] in the "Assess AD/NTFS Security" section for examples of use of this service.

New services have been added to permit the automated building of a specified attribute value from a combination other attribute values, parts of other attribute values, and static text. An example of this feature is in the applet titled "Create Users with Required Attributes" [cura04c.dsr], which can be found in the "AD User Maintenance" section of the Console. This applet constructs the created user's display name from the user's last name, a comma, and the user's first name.

AD:AUTO:Attribute Name Auto-populate using Rules 1-5 (use with Button Service: "AD:Create User + Require EDIT Services")
This display service specifies which attribute will be built by the following five services. It should be used with one or more of the following five services which will allow you to automate the construction of an attribute's value, as specified by the "AD:AUTO:Attribute Name Auto-populate using Rules 1-5 (use with Button Service: "AD:Create User + Require EDIT Services")" service, with the values of other attributes and static text:

  • AD:AUTO:Rule 1:Attribute Name (use with Display Service "AD:AUTO:Attribute Name")
  • AD:AUTO:Rule 2:Attribute Name (use with Display Service "AD:AUTO:Attribute Name")
  • AD:AUTO:Rule 3:Attribute Name (use with Display Service "AD:AUTO:Attribute Name")
  • AD:AUTO:Rule 4:Attribute Name (use with Display Service "AD:AUTO:Attribute Name")
  • AD:AUTO:Rule 5:Attribute Name (use with Display Service "AD:AUTO:Attribute Name")
To insert the entire value of a single-valued attribute, place the name of the attribute in the "Manual Entry Text" box in the Designer.

To insert the first five characters of an attribute, use "*5*<attributeName>" (without the quotes, and substituting an attribute name for <attributeName>).

To insert the last three characters of an attribute, use "<attributeName>*3*" (without the quotes, and substituting an attribute name for <attributeName>).

To insert static text, two asterisks should precede the static text in the "Manual Entry Text" box in the Designer, for example, "**fixed text" (without the quotes).

The rules will be executed in numerical order to build the attribute specified with the ' AD:AUTO:Attribute Name Auto-populate using Rules 1-5 (use with Button Service: "AD:Create User + Require EDIT Services")' service. Each auto rule service may be used only once, and any number of these AD Auto Rule services may be used to build the specified attribute's value.
