LDAP

[Peter K]

Hi - are there any libraries (3rd party or Microsoft's own (maybe a part of
..net)) which I can use for accessing LDAP from c#?

Thanks,
Peter

If you're using Active Directory, take a look at the DirectoryServices
namespaces.

Yes, thanks - I've been looking into those, but I was hoping there was maybe
some sort of framework built on top of this, so I don't have to create all
the DirectorySearcher queries with distiguished names and common names, and
find various properties and whatnot.

But maybe LDAP is so complicated, flexible, and dynamic that that is not
really feasible in a general way.

BTW, I have also found the microsoft.public.adsi.general group, which I
think deals with LDAP/AD questions more than this group does.

That was my understanding when I looked into it. But LINQ wasn't available
then, so maybe the other post will yield something interesting.
