Even DSREPORT doesn't seem to offer this information.

Steven,

For individual objects you can look at the creation time of the object
in DSBrowse. For bulk reporting you may be able to get a creation
attribute via LDAP.

Yup..... add the '+' as your attribute requested. For example compare:

#requests all objects in o=novell,dc=org getting just the DNs back
ldapsearch -x -b 'o=novell,dc=org' -s sub dn

#requests all objects in o=novell,dc=org getting just their operational
#attributes
ldapsearch -x -b 'o=novell,dc=org' -s sub +

Add to this I think you can request creationtimestamp directly, though
my box is down for testing. It shows up clearly, though, with the
command above.

Good luck.

Yes it does, look down at the DSI: properties for the objects

One way to do it is with our DSRAZOR for eDirectory/NDS and NetWare product.
Try the applet called "User Creation Time Report" in the Query and Search
NDS section of the DSRAZOR Console. A 7-day evaluation is available from:
