active directory diagramming

[Graham Turner]

am looking to visio to produce graphical view of the AD site replication
objects - site / server / naming contexts et al

have so far generated a "static" view of this but of course as more sites
come on line to the directory this will require a significant amount of
redrawing

was wondering what support versions of visio support a m ire dynamic export
of the directory information to generate a dynamic view of the AD sites as
per the example shown in the document

" step by step guide to creating AD diagrams in visio 2002"

Thanks

There was a tool for Visio 2000 that implemented this, but MS discontinued
development and support. If you search this Visio forum and/or the general
forum, you'll find several other posts on the same topic. I suggest
submitting a request to the MS wish list if you desire (as I do) that this
crucial functionality be restored.

Where would we find and address to submit that request to?

The GM for Visio is RWOLF. You could email him.

I was referring to the Wish submittal (I *think* it's (e-mail address removed),
but I'm not sure... it's somewhere buried on the ms site, though) but Lori
had a MUCH better avenue! See her response.

So would that be (e-mail address removed)?

Close: you left out an "o".
