    If it's an attribute that's not exposed as a variable in the policy templates, you'll need to script it.

    [string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

    Are you wanting to script this yourself, or just get a script that will do it?

    If you're wanting to learn to script (highly recommended) I'd start at the Scritpting Guy's home page:

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/scriptcenter/bb410849

    Choose a scripting language - I highly recommend Powershell.

    You're going to be updating AD attributes, so you want to investigate the methods for doing that in whatever language you choose.  You can go to the scripting forum threads for help, but they tend to frown on "somebody write me a script" approaches.  They'll be happy to help you sort out your own code, but don't like to do other people's work for them.

    If you're just wanting a script, you need to find a consultant who can write one for you, and be available to call if it ever needs changed or starts having unintended consequences.

    If you will have this script then please send it to me, because it will save my time.

    Hello,

     

    Yes, your requirement must be met by a script. For the script related question, you can create a new thread to our Development forum via:
