I'm a newbie to the whole .NET Framework. I need to create a Web Interface to search Active Directory and pull out all the Users and Contacts of a domain. What would be the best langauge to do this in? I was able to do this with VB6 as a windows application but I want to be able to do it through a Web Interface using .NET. I'm new to Web applications. Is there a good place for me to start reading? Would VB.NET be OK to do this? Does anybody know where I could find some sample code

Thank
Seth

I think that it will be a hard to find a solution for this, this sounds for
me as the wishes of a lot of spamming companys in one way and other way the
ones who wants to make virusses.

I hope that it is impossible to make this as a webform application.

If you want to go on than I think just start on http://msdn.microsoft.com
there is a bunch of information.

I'm sorry I should have been more specific. This won't be for publishing on the web. It would be on a companies server for intranet use.
 
Hi Seth,

Than do not try to make it as a websolution, I think that can save you a lot
of time, you will see that you have to overcome a lot of security isues and
than you should make still things that are not real only as a webform
solution.

But just my thought, and maybe somebody has an easy solution for you.

Regardless of which language you use, Active Directory access is available via the
System.DirectoryServices library.
