You can use CSVDE or LDIFDE.

Sanjay,

This should not present any problems. Simply export the .ldf file ( I am a
fan of ldifde! ) from the production domain ( remember to use the -m switch
as well as the -l switch so that you can include only those 'fields' that
you want ), open the .ldf file with NotePad and then simply use 'replace
with...' to replace the production domain name (
DC=productiondomain,DC=com ) with the lab domain name (
DC=labdomain,DC=com ).

HTH,

Cary

Hi Cary,

I actually like to use both tools, but it depends on what I'm doing. I've
used ldifde to modify 1000's of accounts in the past. Great tool! For simple
extracts to export them to an Excel file, csvde is handy.

Ace,

You are correct. Both are nice tools. For some reason ldifde just works
better for me. I guess that I am going to have to get over this and start
using csvde a little bit more. I should not 'discriminate'!

Nah, I wouldn't call it that. Probably just never needed to make a csv file
of it.
