My own developed - Active Directory Cache Inspector for AD Driver Novell Identity manager

Sometimes there is a need for us (Consultants) to see a snapshot of all the changes that happened on the Active directory side while the Novell AD IDM driver was stopped or was not running, before we decide to start the AD driver. Since Novell Identity Manager currently allows us to see all the events which happened in the Identity vault only, but not on the AD side, I decided to write such a tool myself, and of course wanted to share this tool with the consultants/community out there. It's a .NET 2.0 WinForm application, written in C# programming language. To run this tool you should have at minimum: .NET 2.0 framework installed, ( Not supported on the Linux platforms yet) This application must be run under the same user which is configured on the AD driver. Short Tutorial (How To): When you run the application (ADCView.exe), the application automatically discovers the current domain, a domain controller, and default domain naming context in the user logged in domain automatically

Novell IdM 3.6 : Creating custom Subscriber PostProcessor Java extension for Delimited Text Driver Part 1

I had chance to write a custom PostProcessor extension for a Delimited Text Driver for Novell Identity Manager,  " t he PostProcessor extension should execute the code under another Windows Domain User account. So I decided to run the driver with Remote Loader Configuration, running the DirXML windows Service under another Windows Domain User Account. " Software and settings in my setup: * Novell Designer 3.0.1 (build  Jan 5, 2009) * Novell Identity Manager 3.6 / Windows Server 2003 R2 * Novell iManager 2.7.2 * Delimited Text Driver 3.6 ver 2.0 (imported configuration  file from Designer 3.0.1) * And the Delimited Text Driver was going to run on the remote server (Remote Loader),  * Java IDE was  (IntelliJIDEA) i started first with digging into documentation of the driver, and i came a cross this section: Using Java Interfaces to Customize File Processing: http://www.novell.com/documentation/idm36drivers/delimited/index.html?page=/documentation/idm36drivers/delimited/data/bkt
