  • File Get-User.ps1 — part of check-in [070dff2043] at 2018-06-10 14:12:05 on branch trunk — This function is an attempt to duplicate the Quest Get-QADUser cmdlet without using any third party snap-ins. If you want to run it against a Global Catalog you simply need to replace LDAP: with GC: and you will want to comment out the lines that pull the password last set and last logon timestamp unless you happen to be replicating those to your GC.
