Active Directory Tool: Userinfo

[Marc 36]

Hi all,

a long time ago I wanted a comfortable tool to get information of a specified user in our active directory.
After some searching I decided to create my own tool and "Userinfo" was born.

• displays all useful information about the user (retrieved from active directory)
• displays the PCs/NCs the user has (if this information can be retrieved from a database)
• displays the list of neighbours of the current user
• compares the active directoy groups of the selected user with another user
• unlock a locked account
• german/english user interface

Feel free to adjust it to your needs
For example, you have to adjust the lines 893/4, 1469/70, 1555/6 and 2018/9 to the adresses your own databases to include PC-Information.

(Currently the first command in the functions for database-query is just a simple Return to prevent crashes.)

Userinfo v2.80.zip

userinfo_english v3.43.zip

Credits go to:

• Water for his excellent Active Directory UDF
• Ascend4nt for his Clipput.html
• Funkey for demonstrating how to check if a label is bold or not
• rasim for the example showing how to sort Listview Items

Update 2018-03-08:

Release of v3.43.

Changes from 2.80: ehrm, plenty. Multilanguage support is removed, but this version is translated to english.

This time, the Zip file includes two versions:

1. the stripped-down version, which uses only the active directory. This version should run out-of-the-box (hehe, a Domain is required. Wouldn't make much sense otherwise, would it?)
2. the 'full' version. This needs to be adopted to your environment, because it requires some SQL Database connections to get information about the user's PC

 

best regards,
Marc

Good looking example

I'm going to post a link on the Active Directory Example Scripts thread.

It seems to understand.
It was necessary to to specify the domain on 597 line?
Funk finde_domaene ($ user = "", $ domaene = "DOMANE.RU")

Hey Marc,

Hi araneon, sorry for the late reply - after two years, I did not expect questions to come up

You can add a domain name here as default, which wil be used if no domain is chosen in the GUI. At least on my PC, the GUI displays all Domains known to the PC in the Listbox.

Hi Battalion,

sorry for the late answer. I am still using this tool (but in a different version - not multilingual and somewhat tweaked to fit in our specific environment).

Anyway, the function suche_nachbarn() does rely on the active directory having set the "physicalDeliveryOfficeName". I suppose the crash occures here, do you have a line number where the error occures to investigate this?

released a much newer version in the first post.
