I've been looking on MSDN website for examples of how to access Active
Directory.

Does any one know of any links to code examples.....

Thanks,
Wayne
 
Wayne:

Based on a post I saw above by Chris Taylor, I decided to
start learning more about Active Directory as well. I
picked up a copy of Microsoft Windows 2000 Active Directory
Programming, and although I've only in Chapter 6, I have
read enough to know that this stuff is wayyy coool. The
code is in VB6 and C++ so there isn't a way to know that
there is a DirectorySErvices class in .NET just from
reading it . However, it does a wonderful job at describing
AD and what it can do for you, and with a little digging,
you can port the code over to .NET.

I feel a little professional guilt over just getting into
AD in 2003 (but better late than never right?), but I'm in
love with it.

Have you done any other programmatic manipulations with AD?
If so, I'd love to hear about them just to get some ideas
about where to focus my learning.

Thanks again,

Bill
 
Hi Bill

I'm the same as yourself.... I'm just getting to grips with AD also.....

I have wrote my app and as I'm still on learning curve with .NET it's a bit
rough but does the job.

I'm currently shelling out to VBS to shutdown the PC, I would like to get
this into my app as it would be a cleaner soultion.

If you would like a copy of my code, then please e-mail and I'll send it to
you.

Wayne.
