Good morning:
I´m currently researching on the best way to track if a user has changed any of its attributes recently. I´m developing in .net.
I´ve found that the whenChanged attribute stores the date and time of the last change made to the user, but I´ve also read that this attribute is not replicated among domain controllers, so i have some question on that matter: 1. How can i make sure the whenChanged attribute is the same among all DC? can I force a Directory Synchronization? (how can I do it? any articles urls will be appreciated). 2. If I force a DC sync operation, will these replicate the whenChanged attribute? 3. Is there any other method to track the active directory changes? I´ve read this article "http://support.microsoft.com/kb/891995" but have not found further info on this.
