Active Directory Properties Commandline Tool

12 Sep

I have written a small commandline tool that shows the Active Directory Property Sheet for a given account.

The Property sheet is what you get when you doubleclick an object in Active Directory & Computers. Basically this tool is meant to make it easy to quickly view or change properties without needing to start a GUI tool and looking up the account in the AD Tree.
It takes only one parameter in the form DOMAIN\Account where Account is the sAMAccountName and Domain is required.

The result in this sample is:

I hope you will find it usefull!

Hi, I manage more than 10,000 user accounts everyday. I found your Adprops is very handy. I’ve also created a customized vbscript to modify the property of the user account. I would like know how to calling the property from my script, but I still have no idea after a lot of search. So may I have the source code to read please?

Is there a way for this to also display the Attribute Editor tab?

@Kevin: I am not sure if there’s programmatic control over what tabs to show. Any registered tabs should automatically be displayed. I’ll try and have a look.
