| Book Description: |
ADSI (Active Directory Service Interfaces) provides a useful set of interfaces for accessing network providers. As most ASP/ASP.NET programmers operate predominantly in a Microsoft environment, this article focuses on using ADSI to access Active Directory. However, these concepts can be easily migrated to any LDAP provider. With ADSI, searching and manipulating Active Directory directory services has always been relatively easy. However, as with most things in .NET, those tasks have just become easier. In this article, Noel Simpson examines how to traverse and manipulate Active Directory using .NET's System.DirectoryServices namespace and its two component classes, DirectoryEntry and DirectorySearcher. |
