how do I fill out a logon server that looks like this eg: cn=Users, dc=example, dc=com)
So my domain name is newbalance1.local and the main domain server is oog1 so how do I arrange these to make the network scanner happy that wants this field filled out.
I would like the anser to be something I can just past in the field

Would need to know a bit more about your AD structure to answer categorically, but something like:-
CN=Users,DC=newbalance1,DC
or
CN=Computers,DC=newbalance
The heirarchy of the statement reads from right to left, so any sub containers / OU's would be added to the left of the above.
The easiest way to build the statement is to open up Active Directory Users and Computers and drill down into newbalance.local (which is DC=newbalance1,DC-local)
Then add the subfolders to the left of the statement.
The next bit will either be CN=<container> or OU=<organisationalunit>
That may then also contain other things, again, these are added to the left of the statement that you are building up.
Hopefully that makes enough sense for you to use? If not, please screengrab ADUC and show us the folder that you wish to include in the statement.
CN=Users,DC=newbalance1,DC
or
CN=Computers,DC=newbalance

please help as I need to learn this once and for all.
I need to know what to put in first, second

how do I get all the information you need
Maybe a printscreen of the OU or you can write the full path for your users location
if newbalance users is on domain level this should be
OU=newbalance%20users,dc=n
or
OU="newbalance users",dc=newbalance1,dc=l
I don't recommend spaces, but maybe you have all settup.

The administrator is in the users -ou but every one else is in newbalance users

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH now I get it Duhhh I was putting users=newbalance users.
Can I specify multiple OU
Can I specify multiple OU
You can drill down into specific OU's / CN's by adding them to the left of the statement.
You would need to check the documentation of the software you are using to see if it allows you to specify several different OU's.....

I think you can use cn=Users,dc=newbalance1,dc
if you use a OU then you should use OU=OtherUsers,dc=newbalanc
change OtherUSers for your OU container
if is an OU in another OU you have to name all the path
OU=Manager,OU=Accounting,O
