Hi Mani_Admin. Thanks for post here. LDAP search is the recommaned method to filter objects in Active Directory . Meanwhile here are some utilities for you to easily search and monitor Active Directory database . Active Directory Explorer v1.42 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963907.aspx Insight for Active Directory v1.01 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897539.aspx Hope that’s helpful.
