Hi,
The variable objUser had to be created by binding (connecting) to the object
in AD, with either the WinNT or LDAP providers. For example:
Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://MyDomain/JoeUser,user")
or
Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://cn=Joe Smith,ou=Sales,dc=MyDomain,dc=com")
You bind with WinNT using the NT name ("pre-Windows 2000 logon name"). LDAP
requires the Distinguished Name. The telephoneNumber attribute is only
exposed by LDAP. I believe this is also true of logonCount. I have never
seen LastLogoff return a value.
Or, the script could bind to a container object, filter on users, and
enumerate the user objects, but your problem is most likely related to which
provider (WinNT or LDAP) is used to bind (make a connection to AD).
