Find all AD objects with certain properties / attributes?

[Javik]

Since I see Water is here, I suppose I'll just ask..

Is there a way to find all objects of a certain type in Active Directory, and stick the result into an array?

I have been looking through Water's AD commands (Sept 2011 command set) and I don't see one that looks like it would do this.

Find all objects of type Computer, that do not have property "netbootGUID".

The actual purpose I'll cover in another thread..

Convert not-prestaged WDS-joined computers into managed?

The functtion you are looking for is _AD_GetObjectsInOU. There you can pass a LDAP query to select the objects you need and return the properties you need into an array.

The LDAP query should look like:

"(objectCategory=computer)(!netbootGUID=*)"
