Ever searched for user or computer objects in Active Directory, only to find that search results do not display WHERE the object exists in AD?  Take for example, the simple user search.  You can see the user exists, but what OU are they in?  WHERE ARE THEY???

Help is here, my friends, do not worry.  You can actually view the canonical names of the objects returned in your query!  This allows you to see which OU the object is in!  Check it out... next time you're in AD, just click the view menu and add the column: X500 Distinguished Name!
