Hi,

I'm trying to create a user with exchange mailbox in AD via a ldifde
command. What Exchange attributes are needed and does anyone have a working
example?

Thanks

I think you could answer yourself doing this. Create an OU (i.e.: "testOU")
and create a standard mailbox-enabled user in it. Then run:

ldifde -f stduser.ldf -d "OU=testOU,DC=mydomain,DC=local" -r
"(objectClass=User)"

This will export all users in domain mydomain.local in the OU "testOU". Then
you can read all attributes needed for a standard user.

Regards,

Carlo

Doing this is strictly unsupported by Microsoft. That being said, pick up the
book in the signature as I put in a chapter about doing this and other exchange
tasks. It shows you the proper way and it also discusses what you need to do if
you want to break the rules and do it through LDAP directly.
