Hello All,
According to Microsoft and some other articles I've read (example on link below)the maximum length of characters for the Last Name attribute within Active Directory is 64 characters, but when using AD Users and Computers to create a new user account it will only allow me to type in a maximum of 29 characters in this field. Has anybody come across this before and is there anyway of changing this limit?. Have looked at Adsiedit limit but can't see anything relevant.
Many thanks
Howard
