!!! Overview
We have some details on various [{$pagename}].
The terms [Attribute] and "property" are interchangeable when discussing Microsoft Active Directory.
The name of an attribute is similar to the name of a field in a database. The actual value assigned to the attribute is stored in Active Directory.[1]
The Active Directory schema can be extended to include additional attributes.
!! Spreadsheets on Microsoft Active Directory Attributes[1]
We have compiled these from various sources including our own discovery.
%%warning
The spreadsheets below are only the default attributes when Active Directory is installed and they are a snap-shot in time.

The spreadsheet indicates which attributes were available in Windows 2000 Server and which were new in Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008.
Some of the attributes that are shown as not available in Windows Server 2003, but available in Windows Server 2008, where introduced in Windows Server 2003 R2.
