[tkota]

Hello,

Can someone please explain the command needed to obtain user's email address from <domain name>\<user ad-ent id> using DSQUERY and DSGET? I will need to invoke these dos commands from a perl script.

Thanks,
Teja

Can you test the below code and see if it works for you, if it doesnt then you can also use a LDAP querie too:

cmd /c dsquery.exe * -limit 0 -filter "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(user id=1234)(mail=*))"
