Finding Out Who Created an NDS Object
Problem
A Forum reader recently asked:
"Using NW 6.5 SP7 eDir 8.7.3.9 I want to see who created an object in the tree. How do I do this?"
And here are several of the responses ...

You can use ndsimon or dsbrowse and look for "creatorsName" in the user attribute.
Aaron Burgemeister
You can also use LDAP requesting '+' as your attribute list
and get the operational attributes, including the creator. Try this:
man ldapsearch
Search for a '+' character (if using 'man' the following keystrokes will search for it where [enter] means hit the enter/return key:
/\+[enter]

I always had a big line in the .BAT file that I use to run ICE. It called the ones I wanted specifically:
AttrList=*,creatorsName,modifiersName,createTimeStamp,modifyTimeStamp,
etc.

Simply use the free DSReport if you don't want to fight your way through LDAP options.

Using creatorsname is not

Using creatorsname is not reliable because object moves are apparently considered a "create".

You can also find the info

You can also find the info in ConsoleOne. Just look at the 'other' tab of the object in question and click the 'Show read only' option at the bottom the dialog box.

Use DSReport

There's a cool solution for DSReport http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/13908.html
This tool is very nice. You can export ALL object information for a container into Excel.

DSBrowse

The replacement for DSBrowse is iMonitor. You can ALMOST do most everything in iMonitor that you could in DSbrowse. If you come up with something, suggest it as an enhancement request, the eDir group is interested in getting any missing features added. (Like the hex dump value of an attribute)
