Anyone who knows, what ad atribute on a user defines if the user is seen in gal through OWA? I know for outlook it "msexchuseoab". Anyone know for OWA though? Cheers.

The value of the msExchUseOAB attribute determines the specific offline address book that a particular mailbox store uses, and is the distinguished name of the offline address list that the users will download

Well here is what you have to remember...the attribute you mentioned will only work with Outlook and only when it is in cached exchange mode because this attribute controls the offline address book! When you look at the address book in OWA, you are looking at the GAL not the OAB.The attribute you want to look at if you want to hide a user from the GAL and all other address lists is MSExchHideFromAddressLists

Oh yes, thank you for the clarity. What I meant to put was the value "msExchquerybaseDN". I read that this attribute affects what a user will see in the gal...how does it affect visibility? Cheers.
