Hi Jerry,
I think you can get the property of Active Directory object through
ADSI(active directory service interface).
In .Net, it is replaced by System.DirectoryServices namespace.
You can get more information from the two sample below:
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/activedirquery.asp?target=active+directory
%7Cobject%7Cproperty
http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/adsi1.asp?target=active+directory|object
%7Cproperty
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
