Finding the Exchange DN name with Exchange System Manager

One quick and easy way to find the Exchange DN name without using ADSI edit is to use Exchange System Manager to create a temporary address book filter and cut and past the information you need out of the query string that gets built for you.

To do this from Exchange System Manager create a new address list and set the filter rules so it includes only mailboxes on the server you want to get the DN Name from as shown below

Select okay to this and then go into the properties of your newly created address list and cut and past the  msExchHomeServerName as shown

Pretty easy ! once your done you can delete the temporary address list you created,  it woks with any other exchange property you need and can save you loads of time banging around in ADSI edit,
