Does anyone have a quick way to deteremine what OU a user is part of? I
usually use AD users and computers - find command, then name mapping. What
is required for the name mapping option to be available? I am trying to find
something for our helpdesk to use to make this quick...

thx in advance...

yes.

dsquery * domainroot -filter
"(&(objectCategory=Person)(objectClass=User)(sAMAccountName=%usr%))" -attr
sAMAccountName distinguishedName

where %usr% can be replaced by the users logon name (sAMAccountName)

The above is one line.
