Our office has a close to 1000 users in AD and often we need to change
their network and printer group mappings.....

What we were thinking is having a graphical web interface which can
list all the groups within an OU where we can then view the users and
update the groups via a web page.........

Has anyone done something like this before..........

thanks

I started working on such a thing, working with PHP and Perl script (from
Perl/Win32 books). It runs on a domain controller, so you need to
implement a good security.

Probably you can use PHP alone, using the LDAP functions, but I haven't
tried that (except a simple user-name lookup).
