How to Create an InetOrgPerson

  • Article

 

The InetOrgPerson object is used in several non-Microsoft LDAP and X.500 directory services to represent people within an organization. The procedures to create a mailbox-enabled or mail-enabled InetOrgPerson are the same as creating a user object. This procedure describes how to create an InetOrgPerson.

Before You Begin

You can create an InetOrgPerson only if you are running a Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 domain controller. InetOrgPerson can be mail-enabled or mailbox-enabled only in a native Exchange 2003 topology.

Procedure

To create an InetOrgPerson

  1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange, and then click Active Directory Users and Computers.

  2. In the console tree, navigate to the container where you want to create the InetOrgPerson, right-click the container, point to New, and then click InetOrgPerson.

  3. In New Object – InetOrgPerson, complete the remaining steps.

    Note

    Other than Step2 above, create an InetOrgPerson the same way you would create a standard user account.
