Dsquery
Dsquery is a helpful command-line tool that can be utilized to find Active Directory objects.
It exists on modern Windows systems at
C:\Windows\System32\dsquery.dllBut we need shell from
SYSTEMcontext.
# Get users
dsquery user
# Get computers
dsquery computer
# Wildcard queries
# Note: CN=Users refers to the Users container, which is a default container
# object where user accounts, security groups, and other objects are
# stored by default when they are created, unless a different container
# or Organizational Unit (OU) is specified.
dsquery * "CN=Users,DC=$DOMAIN,DC=LOCAL"
# Users With Specific Attributes Set (PASSWD_NOTREQD)
dsquery * -filter "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=32))" -attr distinguishedName userAccountControl
# Searching for Domain Controllers
dsquery * -filter "(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=8192)" -limit 5 -attr sAMAccountName Some Useful Commands
