User Template increase attributes copied

When you create a user template and copy it to create a new user only a limited number of attributes are copied

Example: Copy Office From the General tab

Suppose you have a user template and want the Office value from the general tab to remain when you create a new user by copying the template.

You can use ADSI Edit to make the attribute copy.

  • Open ADSI Edit
  • In the left pane right click ADSI Edit and Connect To the Schema Naming Context

  • Locate the attribute name in this case Office is:
    Physical-Delivery-Office-Name
  • Right Click and open Properties

  • Attribute Editor Tab … locate searchFlags
  • Edit and add 16 to the value
  • To prevent it from copying remove 16 from the value.

I have tested with Windows 2008 R2 as shown but certain it should work with previous version as I learned from a Windows 2000 KB Article.

Where do you get the attribute names … I found some here.
