How to: Search for Password History in a Specific Time Period

  • Article

The following Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) example shows how to search for a history of password changes that occurred on the server between August 1, 2003 and August 1, 2005 (2003-08-01 and 2005-08-01). To use the classes in this script, you must be logged on as a member of the MIISAdmin or MIISBrowse security group in Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service (FIM Synchronization Service).

Option Explicit

On Error Resume Next

Set Service = GetObject("winmgmts:root\MicrosoftIdentityIntegrationServer")

TimeStart = "2003-08-01 03:25:07.221"
TimeEnd   = "2005-08-01 03:25:07.226"

Set Targets = Service.ExecQuery( "Select * from MIIS_PasswordChangeHistoryTarget where " &_ 
    "MIISReceiveTime > '" & TimeStart & "' and MIISReceiveTime < '" & TimeEnd & "'")

For Each objtarget in Targets
  Wscript.echo objtarget.ReferenceGuid
  Wscript.echo objtarget.RetryCount
  Wscript.echo objtarget.AttemptDetails
  Wscript.echo objtarget.MaGuid
  Wscript.echo objtarget.LastAttemptTime
Next

Sub ErrorHandler (ErrorMessage)
  WScript.Echo ErrorMessage
  WScript.Quit(1)
End Sub
