Problem with creating groups
Hi there, when I create a group with the AD Manager the attribute "displayName" will be filled with the groupname. If I create a group with the normale AD MMC the displayName attribute is no set and empty. Is it possible to achieve this with the AD Manager tool as well? We do not need the displayName attribute to be set. Regards Tom

ADmanager logs display passwords in clear text
Hello, We've just discovered that ADmanager displays changed passwords in clear text in several places. One is on the Audit Report. Another is the log files on the Server where it's installed. This seems like a huge breach in security. Is there a way to to turn this off or at least an option to hash the passwords?
Customize Naming Formats
Hello everyone, Am trying to find out if the following conditions could be achieved in "Customize Naming Formats" that meet our requirements. I've found how to pull the initials to start a username to meet our convention, but then I get stuck... Our (all uppercase) usernames consist of: First letter of first name | First letter of surname | 2 or 3 digit department code | 3 or 4 digits to separate the user (number of digits is whatever is required to take whole username to 8 digits total, as in 4
Report output - resizing window
Hi When I run a variety of reports, the output window cannot be resized to show more lines. The default window only display 2 - maybe 3 - lines. Is there a way to manually 'grab and drag' the report window frame to increase the display window? Here is an example of the output from the Non-Inheritable Folders report:- Am I missing something - or is this not possible?
Bulk Remove Users from Groups
Is there a way in AD Manager Plus to remove all users from a select csv list of groups? I have a large list of groups that I need to remove all users from. Performing this task via user account or group membership report lists takes too long to process and is very slow. Having an option for removing all users from specific groups directly would be much more efficient and quicker.
What utilities are available to graph complicated Folder access by multiple groups?
What utilities are available to graph complicated Folder access by multiple groups? We are using Manage Engine Plus to list the folders and permissions for an area on a large file server. For example we need a graphical picture: Security access provided to 18 AD Security Groups over a very large number of nested folders that are at a minimum of 3 levels deep extending to 10 levels deep. What type of access is available to each group at each folder Are there any manage Engine tools that will do this?
User Automation based on scheduled reports or granular/custom reports?
Hello, Can ADManager Plus allow me to automate moving of users who have a specific "Department" to a specific OU? This along with security group automation would allow me to better stay on top of user object location and security group baselines. While I can go to AD Reports > Schedule Reports > Create Schedule and use the filter criteria, this doesn't help me when it comes to the Automation tasks or policies. It seems that the Automation tasks and polices only let me use the out-of-the-box reports.
DeProvisioning Automation Policy - Random password?
In the Instant Tasks section of Automation Policy, there is an option for "Reset Password". is there an existing (or upcoming) feature to allow this option to randomly generate a password? The random password feature does exist in the New User template, so possibly it could be incorporated into the automation policy?

Reports in Office 365
When I run a report of a user in ADManager under AD Reports - Office 365 called Unlicensed Users - this reports shows me all the unlicensed users as well as any shared mailboxes. I'm assuming this is because shared mailboxes do not consume a license. At first I thought this was just a typo - and it should be unlicensed mailboxes, however this is not the case since unlicensed users do not have a mailbox, but shared mailboxes do actually contain mail data and/or mailboxes (however they do not have

Group Attribute Priv for Modify Group
Hi When creating a help desk role for say 'group management' which only includes the 'modify single group' property, is it possible to further limit what can be modified for the group, for example 'manager can update members list' only? It appears this feature is available for roles with 'create' properties but not for modify. What we are trying to achieve is limiting our users modify access for groups to only be able to modify: -manager -manager can update memberslist ...with everything else locked
User Creation using AD manager
I currently have templates set up for creating users using AD manager that only require my help desk techs to enter information in certain fields. This works, however, when the user is created, the name listing in Active Directory is the username, instead of the full name as it would be prior to manually creating the user in Active Directory. Ex: Creating a user Joe Blow. When we would create this user in Active Directory Users and computers the Name would be listed as Joe Blow. When we create using

Automation - add users of one domain to group in another?
In the automation, and automation policy, it appears we are limited to choosing a single domain for the task(s). This seems to restrain automating group membership to only users who are in the same domain as the group. Or am I mistaken -- is there a way to achieve this? My work-around consideration would be to manage groups on each domain in separate policies, then make those groups members of the parent group that resides in the target domain. Thank you

Auditing Office Location for against a specific list of acceptable values
Here's a challenge: Not all of our techs use ADManager and still create AD accounts manually. The result is that we frequently have AD User Accounts created with an office location that either isn't exactly correct or is entirely incorrect for our environment. Because we also use ServiceDesk Plus, the erroneous Office Location results in a new and erroneous Site created during our AD sync. I'd like to be able to run an ADManager report that essentially says, "Show me a list of user accounts in the

Customize completed user creation page?
Is it possible to customize the username and password data/output (on screen or sent via email) confirming that a new user has been created?

Help Desk Technicians in AD Manager
I would like to be able for my Help Desk Users to be able to change offices, email address, title, department and manager when creating an AD account using AD manager, but so far the only way that I can enable them to do this is by giving them super admin rights, and that gives them more ability than I want them to have. I want to keep what they can do limited, but for what they do they need more access. Currently all that is available to them is enter the first and last name, and initial. For what

Group Object reporting issue
I'm currently working with manage engine support on an issue with my instance of AD Manager after a service pack change was made last year. The issue is whenever we attempt to run a group object report it seems to hang like it doesn't finish. The vendor informed me that this is because the product has been modified to perform a domain sync with all group objects in the domain after generating the group report. Because we have 14,000 objects in our domain it hangs up the group object report for 30-40

Account Creation - home drive label?
If I specify a home drive path in ADUC it doesn't display the full server path to the user's mapped home drive when the visit the Computer folder. However if I have this created through ADManager, it appears to make visible the whole path (like \\server01\profiles$\username). Is there any way to make it map the home drive (like to the H: drive letter) to their path at \\server01\profiles$\%username% but not show the full server name in the mapping? I think the only way around this in the meantime
