Adding a field to a windows explore view. (non standard)
HI,
In windows explora you will all know the network folder which list all the computers in he domain.
the default files you can see are
Name, Category, Workgroup, Network location,IP address, MAC address.
and IP and MAC never seem to work.
I would like to be able to see department and owner which we have stored in AD.
Does any one know a way to alter the available fields to allow this ?
Cheers

I thought I had seen something about this but it only worked on pre XP and they had a workaround for XP but not Vista. What it looks like you want is to add custom columns to your details. The bad thing about this is that they only give us so many choices in the Network WE and there is not (that I could find) a way to add more choices.
Here is what I looked at, it may give you some ideas on what to look for article
