joeware - never stop exploring... :)

As I am working on updating the usage in AdFind for some changes I have made I realized I never added the usage help for the –ameta and –vmeta switches I added last year.

So with your current version of AdFind, assuming you have downloaded the latest version on the website since last April, you can pull attribute replication metadata on any given object or set of objects with the –ameta switch or the linked value replication metadata on any given object or set of objects with the –vmeta switch. You can also get this with the –sc objsmeta shortcut but I wanted the ability to get one or the other without both and not have to recall the attribute names so added those short switches.

Ex:

F:\Dev\Current\CPP\AdFind\Release>adfind -default -s one -ameta
