How to Query ActiveDirectory/Exchange - Find all users w/mail forward to "X" ??

    I have a user who over a number of years has had the mailboxes of various other users/accounts set to forward to his mailbox.

    I now need to extract a list of all users/accounts currently set to forward to him.

    Environment: AD on Server 2000; Exchange 2000

    Can this be done using AD itself? Or does LDIFDE need to be used, and if so, how?
    We also use Hyena - does this provide the above functionality?

    yes you can do a custom query and use ldap.

    (altCategory=user)(altRecipient=*) is the string you need. that will list all users forwarding email to anyone. replace the * with the details you need to list an individual.

    I've never used LDIF before and I'm trying to figure out the switches/syntax to use with that but im not having any luck so far.

    Here's what i've been trying:

    C:\>ldifde -f output.ldf -r (altCategory=user)(altRecipient=bob)
    Connecting to "xxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxx"
    Logging in as current user using SSPI
    Exporting directory to file output.ldf
    Searching for entries...
    Writing out entries
    No Entries found

    The command has completed successfully


    Where "bob" is the user.


    Would you mind giving me the full command?

    the command is for LDAP not LDIF. Do into to AD users and computers and create a custom query. I'll try and find a doc on how to do it.

    Exchange 2000 example

    Simply replace the query in the example with the correct one. Pretty certain that this is similar to how one does it in the AD Users & Computers snap-in too.
