AD User Editor is a webpart for MOSS 2007 that allows to easily modify any profile property of any person in Active Directory. Il can also be configured as "self-service" for a user to be able to modify his properties only.

AD User Editor

5 different types of properties fields: Simple TextBox, DropDownList/ListBox (with predefined values), People Picker, Date Picker with calendar.
Multi-domain compatible.
Nearly Any Active Directory property can be easily added or removed of the edit form, directly trough the webpart configuration (nothing "hard-coded").
SharePoint "look & feel"

Warning: This tool modify data in Active Directory. Be careful setting the user access rights. It has been tested and verified, but I cannot be held responsible for any loss of data - use at your own risk.

Marcelo,
It could be a problem of credentials.
Please check that the login you put in the xml config is like this: "DOMAIN\username "

Hi Alexis:
I have sucessfully configured the AD User Editor Webpart, however if I try to get an account from the PersonPicker and then edit it it launches the following error message:
System.DirectoryServic es.DirectoryServic esCOMException (0x8007202B): A referral was returned from the server. at System.DirectoryServic es.DirectoryEntry.Bind(Boolean throwIfFail) at System.DirectoryServic es.DirectoryEntry.Bind() at System.DirectoryServic es.DirectoryEntry.get_AdsObject() at System.DirectoryServic es.DirectorySearch er.FindAll(Boolean findMoreThanOne ) at System.DirectoryServic es.DirectorySearch er.FindOne() at NomineSharePoin tTools.ADUserEditor.findFromAccount Name(String Name) at NomineSharePoin tTools.ADUserEditor.selectUser()

Any suggestion or possible troubleshooting for solving this issue would be highly appreciated!!
BTW, Excellent Webpart, I´m really excited to try it on, please help!!

Steev,
The issue is related to the xml config in the webpart:

Hello, I am having some trouble getting the WebPart to work.

I have installed it successfully and added it to a MOSS page, but I get an error.

I seem to get the same error whether I enter my DC creds or not.

The error is

"System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundExce ption: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowKeyNotFoun dExce ption() at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.get_Item(TKey key) at NomineSharePoin tTools.ADUserEditor.findFromAccount Name(String Name) at NomineSharePoin tTools.ADUserEditor.selectUser"

Fairly noob at this so it's probably something obvious I am missing. I would appreciate any help you can give me as the WebPart is exactly what I am looking for.

Thanks.

Steev.

Excellent web part. See link for configuration gotchas I found. Main thing is to make the 'Edit current user only' property non-editable when modifying the web part in personal mode.

Hi, great toll but one real nice option is missing. There is no way to pass the current logged in in MOSS user's credentials to the AD. It'll be very nice to have that as setting administrator account into the WebPart configuration is not an option in most companies. Anyway, user by default can change some of his attributes in AD, and if passing his credentials automatically is possible this tool can be useful in more scenarios.
It's pretty simple to do it in WebApp, I think can be done in WebPart.
