is there a way to see when a user, machine or group was
created, or last edited? it would be very useful to see
how old an account is

Yes.

See tip 7368 and its link trail in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com
See tip 7714.

These attributes exist on user, machine, and group:

whenChanged
whenCreated

John,

Another very useful way would be to turn on auditing. It seems that this
has become a very popular topic lately.

Essentially, if you want to know who created what or who moved what or who
deleted what then you need to turn on auditing before 'who' created what or
'who' moved what or 'who' deleted what ( read: from the get-go! ).

HTH,

Cary
