Hello,
I need to make a change for every (~1000) user in an OU
which I may need to implement with a script. (because I
can't think of any other way...) I need to make a change
located in the Exchange General-Delivery Restrictions-
Message Restrictions-Accept Messages "Only From:"
location. I need to add a distribution list to this
property. Thanks for any help or advice to get me going!
 
David,

I would think that the scripting NG *might* be a better choice, but this NG
is also a good choice.

I may not be able to help you with this particular situation but will
hopefully help you in many other situations that you might encounter later
on in your Admin life.

Take a look at a utility called ADModify ( written by two Microsoft
employees ). It is really a wonderful utility that will save you a ton of
time. Currently version 1.5 is out and I believe that the guys are working
on version 2.0!!! This utility can be found at the following link:

ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/PSS/Tools/Exchange%20Support%20Tools/ADModify/

I am not sure that this particular utility can do exactly what you are
trying to do. However, it will be an immense help in a lot of other things.

You might also want to look at ldifde and csvde. ldifde is a really neat
tool as well but, unfortunately, has a rather unforgiving syntax. csvde
allows you to make use of an excel spreadsheet ( assuming that it is
properly formatted ).

Have you taken a look in the scripting NG?

HTH,

Cary
