adidnsdump

Dumps the DNS records integrated into Active Directory.

When DNS is Active Directory-integrated (the norm in a Windows domain), any authenticated user can read the zone over LDAP, including records that do not resolve by direct query because they are not *enumerable*. adidnsdump pulls them all: internal hostnames, servers, services. It is the way to turn "I have credentials" into "I have the internal network's name map" without relying on a classic zone transfer, which is rarely open.
