How can I list user logon names from Active Directory?
How can I print out a list of user logon accounts from my active directory (Microsoft Server 2003 R2 SP2). The export function that I find in AD only lists the display name. I do not need passwords, just the logon name.
run this in command prompt on your dc
dsquery user | dsget user -samid
dsquery user | dsget user -samid
Of course, you can redirect output to .txt file and print it:
dsquery user | dsget user -samid >> c:\userlist.txt
dsquery user | dsget user -samid >> c:\userlist.txt

try this
set objRootDSE = getobject("LDAP://RootDSE")
strExportFile = "C:\MyExport.xls"
strRoot = objRootDSE.Get("DefaultNamingContext")
strfilter = "(&(objectCategory=Person)(objectClass=User)(department=brugere))"
strfilter = "(&(objectCategory=Person)(objectClass=User))"
strAttributes = "sAMAccountName,userPrincipalName,givenName,sn,"
strScope = "subtree"
set cn = createobject("ADODB.Connection")
set cmd = createobject("ADODB.Command")
cn.open "Provider=ADsDSOObject;"
cmd.ActiveConnection = cn
cmd.commandtext = "<LDAP://" & strRoot & ">;" & strFilter & ";" & _
strAttributes & ";" & strScope
set rs = cmd.execute
set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
set objWB = objExcel.Workbooks.Add
set objSheet = objWB.Worksheets(1)
For i = 0 To rs.Fields.Count - 1
objSheet.Cells(1, i + 1).Value = rs.Fields(i).Name
objSheet.Cells(1, i + 1).Font.Bold = True
Next
objSheet.Range("A2").CopyFromRecordset(rs)
' Save the workbook
objWB.SaveAs(strExportFile)
rs.close
cn.close
set objSheet = Nothing
set objWB = Nothing
objExcel.Quit()
set objExcel = Nothing

It's easy when your are accomplished in a subject. Thanks for the answer.
you are welcome :)
I am afraid you have to buy that... you didn't indicate though whether you want to just view and print the user logons OR whether you want to incorporate it into an application you are developing... I assume the former. If it is not what you want, pls let us know.
