Ok, with these settings

dc1.co.dodge.wi.us

OU=Juneau

Username co.dodge.wi.us\administrator

Clicking on the Test Connection gives me "Failed to extablish test connection" "There is no such object on the server"

I know it is not the logon credentials due to when I put a wrong password, it comes back with "Logon failure"

Thanks

There is no need need to enter DC=co,DC=dodge,DC=wi,DC=us, you already entered this information into the address field. Just enter OU=Juneau and it should work just fine.

LDAP subtree path OU=Juneau,DC=co,DC=dodge,DC=wi,DC=us

I get the error "no such object on the server"

Shane,
can I please clarify with you - are you aware that Dynamic Search Folders allow to scan an AD and also allow to specify lists of OUs to scan?

With regards of AD integration. In the nearest time in addition to the My Registered Computers, Entire Network root tree nodes, we are planning to add My Active Directories node. A user will be able to register an AD connection under this node and browse the AD in a way similar to the Registered Computers sub-tree.

It would be great to have the VNC manager use LDAP to scan a certain container/folder in AD at certain periods for changes in workstations. This way computer registration would be more automated. It would also be nice if the computer description (from AD) could be used for the "Name" of the workstation. Usually the Address and name are the same if Dynamic DNS is running in the environment.
