Hi,

In Active Directory is there any way to disable a user if
the user don't use his user account for 60 days and also
delete the same user if day become 120 days.

For Information
Server: Windows 2000 Server + SP4
Clients:Windows 2000 Professional + SP4

Regards,

Tayfun Keresteci

Tayfun
you can run a query using dsquery and pipe it to dsmod to search for and
disable accounts not used for x days. I don't think you can use this to
delete accounts.

syntax is something like dsquery user -inactive 9 (weeks) | dsmod
user -disabled yes

you'll have to test the syntax

You can set an account expire date..& account will be removed, don't know if
you can check if used then delete automatically

Using the tools only supplied with Windows, no not automatically. Your best
bet is to script it as Dave pointed out....however these are all Windows
Server 2003 tools that he mentions.


Best,
Will

An expired account isn't deleted.

There's no automagic way to do this that I know of. I used the below script
and tweaked it to output to a file and hardcoded my domain name in. The
outputted text file is loaded into Excel and sorted. Then I manually
disabled stale ID's.
