Hi,
Thanks Joe. I have been through Richard's resources and I must be missing
something because I can't find anything that helps me with updating
Integer8
values. There is plenty on getting them and working with them, but I want
to
Update things like maxPwdAge to new values using vbscript.
For example if I do try to set the lockoutDuration to 20 minutes by
assigning -12,000,000,000 in a vbs file, I get the error "Unspecified
error"
80004005 on the line with -1200*(1^7)
Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")
strDNSDomain = objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")
Set objDomain = GetObject("LDAP://" & strDNSDomain)
objDomain.Put "lockoutDuration", -1200*(1^7)
objDomain.SetInfo
Any ideas around this would be gratefully accepted. If it is at all
possible
I would like to avoid using .NET for now.
Regards
Janette
