Exclude certain OUs from being scaned

[Lars_Vopicka]

We do have a lot of OUs that are being scanned. Within those OUs are child OUs with Li/U/nix-Servers. Those non Windows Servers show up as Erros in LS interface.

I could certainly disable each of those machines from being scannd by editing the blacklist, but what if new ones are added, or those Servernames are being reused by Windows Systems.

Therefore an exclude OU parameter would be very useful.

example:

OU17-OU17a
    -OU17b
    -OU17c-OU1a
          -OU1b
          -OU1c (all UNIX clients)   
    -OU17d


--> scan OU17 but exclude OU17-OU17c-OU1c

Cheers Lars

Dear Admin,

I too think this option is totally needed. We have a "disabled OU" for users and computer that we must keep for legal reasons. We don;t however want it scanned by Lansweeper.

The jpg the mrdaytrade has uploaded would look like exactly what we need.

p.s. we have Lansweeper scan Multiple domains, so it would also be handy if we could enter an OU for each of those domains.



Is this something that you are putting into a next version?

We are considering introducing OU exclusion in one of our future updates.

I second this.
