I am querying Active Directory via LDAP (from Java and PHP) to build a list of all groups that a user is a member of. This list must contain all least all groups (organizational-units optional) that contain groups the user is directly a member of. For example: User1 is a member of GroupA, GroupB, and GroupC. GroupA is a member of Group...

The active directory I have to deal with is laid out as such: the domain contains many OUs. One of these OUs is named "Primary OU". Within this OU are several OUs named with location of global offices (ie "Chicago" "Paris"). Any user account that is an actual flesh and bone person is put into the OU named for the office they work in as...

I'm doing an ADODB recordset.open() command with an LDAP query to get all the users from my Active Directory. There are about 2600 users, but I'm only getting back 1000 of them.

Hi Everyone, I have ADAM set-up & I've written web-services to complete admin tasks like adding new users etc. (I have multiple applications utilising the same ADAM instance) What I am trying to achieve will probably sound a bit odd - but basically I want an admin user to be able to select which attributes the web service should retu...
Each of our users is assigned to a primary organizational unit (OU) based on which global office they are in. So the "Chicago" OU contains all the associates in our Chicago office. Using c# and .net 3.5, my task is to extract all of these users. Unless the users are in a satellite or home office, their street address, city, state, etc....
Update Putting this at the top because it is crazy :) So some users have it work, some don't. When I use my own account via IE7 it doesn't work (my code catches the exception and falls back to simply using the identity name instead of the AD fullname). When I try via Chrome it prompts me for the username and password, which I supply,...

We currently have a View that queries active directory info. I was wondering if there was a good reference as to what fields (field names) are available in AD for me to query against. I don't have access to Active Directory so I can't go playing around in there to maybe figure it out myself. Any help would be appreciated. ...
Hello. I want to synchronize my user database with the users and groups from active directory.

I have an ASP.NET site that must use Forms Authentication and not Windows Authentication to access a ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider.
