Appendix A. Active Directory Utilities Reference

IN THIS BOOK, I’VE discussed many command-line tools and scripts. This appendix is intended to provide a quick reference to the syntax and usage of these tools as well as other commands and utilities that you may find helpful when working with Active Directory. These tools are listed alphabetically by tool name. Unless otherwise noted, these tools work the same way on both Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista. In addition, if a tool is not included in both operating systems, the source of the tool is listed, such as "Windows Server 2008 only" for the tools available only on Windows Server 2008 by default.
