Directory and Resource Administrator 8.0

fix

Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) version 7.5 and earlier cannot manage objects published to Active Directory (AD); such as, Printer and\or Shared folders. The AD objects of printers and shares are basically shortcuts that enable you to easily manage printers and shares in an environment and are replicated with AD.  DRA does not have the ability to manage the Active Directory objects of Printer and shares by the AD object; however, DRA can manage these objects by right-clicking a computer and selecting manage | shares or printers

Beginning with version 8.0, DRA can manage AD Printer objects, however shared folders are still not able to be managed.
