Hyena Active Directory Query Basics Video

Hyena was the first AD management product to support customizable Active Directory queries at every object level. Define your own queries, or use any of the predefined queries to display custom 'views' of exactly what directory attributes you want to see for organizational units, users, groups, or computers.

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.
