PowerShell to get a users DistinguishedName

By jbmurphy on March 23, 2012 in PowerShell

Why can’t I remember that to find a user’s Distinguished Name all i have to do is type the PowerShell cmdlet:

Get-ADUser username

And for a group:

Get-ADGroup groupname

And for a computer:

Get-ADComputer computername

Why can’t I remember that? It is also a quick way to find the OU of an object!
