NNS ADix - How to...Search for a GUID

This topic describes how to search for Active Directory objects using a GUID.

If you need to search for a GUID, you must submit the GUID you are searching for in
a special form:

\37\16\E3\96\F3\59\D0\11\AD\1F\00\AA\00\A2\19\AA

As you do not always have the GUID in the form mentioned above, you have to convert the GUID first.

Example:

GUID to convert:

{96E31637-59F3-11D0-AD1F-00AA00A219AA}

GUID converted:

\37\16\E3\96\F3\59\D0\11\AD\1F\00\AA\00\A2\19\AA

Note:
   If you are searching for GUIDs, you can use placeholders.
   Example: objectGUID=\37\16\E3\96\F3\59\D0\11\AD\1F\00\AA\00*
