ADSI Edit (adsiedit.msc)
Active Directory® Service Interfaces Editor (ADSI Edit) is a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) editor that you can use to manage objects and attributes in Active Directory. ADSI Edit (adsiedit.msc) provides a view of every object and attribute in an Active Directory forest. You can use ADSI Edit to query, view, and edit attributes that are not exposed through other Active Directory Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-ins: Active Directory Users and Computers, Active Directory Sites and Services, Active Directory Domains and Trusts, and Active Directory Schema.

Step 4: Practice Managing AD LDS Organizational Units, Groups, and Users Create an OU
To keep your AD LDS users and groups organized, you may want to place users and groups in OUs. In Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) and in AD LDS, as well as in other Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)-based directories, OUs are most commonly used for keeping users and groups organized.
To create an OU
1. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click ADSI Edit.
2. Connect and bind to the directory partition of the AD LDS instance to which you want to add an OU.
3. In the console tree, double-click the o=Microsoft,c=US directory partition, right-click the container to which you want to add the OU, point to New, and then click Object.
4. In Select a class, click organizationalUnit, and then click Next.
5. In Value, type a name for the new OU, and then click Next.
6. If you want to set values for additional attributes, click More attributes.

Step 5: Practice Working with Application Directory Partitions
The Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) directory store is organized into logical directory partitions. There are three different types of directory partitions:
. Configuration directory partitions
. Schema directory partitions
. Application directory partitions
Each AD LDS directory store must contain a single configuration directory partition and a single schema directory partition. The directory store can contain zero or more application directory partitions.
Application directory partitions hold the data that your applications use. You can create an application directory partition during AD LDS setup or anytime after installation.
