OU Class

The OU (Organizational Unit) class contains objects such as user, group, or computer. Objects of class OU can be created on the primary domain controller and could have other objects as child objects (such as group), so an object of class OU is a container object.

Note: The OU class is available only for Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Active Directory installed.

The OU class has no predefined properties (like other classes have). However, you can update the following OU properties:

• Country/Region
• Description
• Desktop
