export SID number

[chris16]

Does anyone know how to export the SID from AD?? I know you can use some AD
tools such as ldfide or csvide to export account information..but that
doesn't export the SID number associated w/ that object. thank you.

Shouldn't be that hard with a script or something.

What good will it do you? What are you really trying to accomplish?

Adfind does that quite nicely, but you'll need to lookup the correct syntax
unless someone has it handy.

LDIFDE will do this too, but it will give you the data in Base64 (since it
is stored as binary in the directory), so it might not be so practical to
look it. Joe R. always tries to make the annoying stuff easier for us. :)

LOL.

You guys are welcome

AdFind will decode SIDs by default. To get a dump of all SIDs in a
domain in CSV format something like the following should suffice

adfind -default -f objectsid=* objectsid -csv

If you want SAM Name too then something like

adfind -default -f objectsid=* samaccountname objectsid -csv
