Hyena v12.2 is coming soon!

Hyena v12.2, scheduled for November 14 release, incorporates a new method for finding servers in Active Directory.  Instead of relying on the deprecated and error-prone Windows browse list, Hyena v12.2 will incorporate an option to scan one or more designated AD containers for servers, using a user-defined LDAP filter and customizable AD attribute list.

Check back next week for more info!

Hyena v12.0 is now available for download!!

New in Hyena v12.0, is a 'Policy Links' view for one or more Organizational Units. Hyena's new Group Policy Links view can be used to display information on all GPOs linked to one or more organization units, including listing the number of policies, policy order, status, and WMI filtering information.


While the GPMC can be used to get this same information, its limited to only showing GPO links for a single organizational unit. Hyena's GPO link view can display this information for any number of OUs at the same time.

Also new is the Hyena 'Active Stats' view that makes it easy to display the total number and type of objects contained in one or more selected containers and organizational units. The 'Stats' view can show the number of objects for each object class or selected object classes.

Other options include sub-level searching, optional indentation for sub-containers, skipping disabled users or computers, and showing individual group types. ‪#‎ActiveDirectory‬ ‪#‎SysAdmin‬

Hyena v11.7 'E' is now available for download!

Hyena v11.7 has been updated for rev 'E' from its initial release, and can be downloaded here

Changes include:
  • Rev 'E' - Fixed problem with '.' in dates causing account expiration validation problems (Active Task).
  • Rev 'E' - Fixed problem with Windows returning a date in the incorrect format for [TODAY] for non-US date format users, causing incorrect query processing.
  • Rev 'E' - Fixed [TODAY] symbol replacement problem in Active Directory queries when two different date-data types were used in the same query with the same [TODAY] replacement values.
  • Exporter Pro - Added option to export scheduled tasks for new task scheduler (Vista and later)
  • Rev 'D' - Fixed problem with Add/Remove group member function crashing.
  • Rev 'C' - Added 'Find' button to 'Manage Directory Attributes' function when a DN attribute is selected.
  • Rev 'C' - Enabled scrolling on tree control in Exchange Properties > Email Addresses.
  • Rev 'C' - Changed wording on Edit > Find dialog to better reflect the filtering behavior (English only)
  • Rev 'C' - Fixed problem in Exchange Properties > Mail Restrictions dialog that caused the Send Limits to be hidden.
  • Rev 'B' - Sorted the advanced settings (Tools > Settings > Advanced) by default by the name of the setting.
  • Rev 'B' - Added a new symbol, %SYM_AD_GROUP_PARENT%, that can be added to group member queries to show the 'parent' group for indirect group displays. This symbol is useful when nesting groups and showing group membership displays for multiple groups, so that the originating parent group can be added to the output.
  • Rev 'B' - Corrected GUI issue when resizing AD Queries dialog that caused a couple of buttons to not be placed correctly.
  • Rev 'B' - Modified the method used in Active Task to add new objects to groups, in some cases using the new objects' SID.
  • Rev 'B' - Modified the error message when new objects cannot be added to groups, to show both the group and member path.
  • Rev 'B' - Created a workaround when updating share security information (Share Properties) when the server is a non-Windows filter (for example a NetApp device) to set the security permissions in a different manner.

For a complete list of changes in Hyena v11.7, see the Hyena New Features page.
