[2005] Active Directory With LDAP Retrieving User Object Properties?
May 4, 2006
I'm trying to obtain the Terminal Services Profile Path for a user using VB.Net and the System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher. I am able to get the user object's first name, last name, city, state, zip, etc. However, there is one property that eludes me. I cannot manage to find a way to get the terminalservicesprofilepath property.This is how I did it in VB6 and it worked perfect:
visual basic code:
Dim TSPath as string
Dim FirstName as string

1> take a request... ie. First name, Last name, or login ID and Search AD Path can be hard coded so entire forest is not searched.
2> List all entries found
3>once the correct user is selected I need to pull First, last, middle name and , Email , Phone number , @ and GUID for that user.

I wrote a sub that would update an Active Directory user's phone numbers using the lines below:
SetProperty(dirEntryResults, "telephoneNumber", strPhoneNumber)
SetProperty(dirEntryResults, "mobile", strPhoneMobileNumber)
The telephone number updates successfully but the mobile number never updates although the strPhoneMobileNumber variable has a valid phone number value. The code executes without any errors. What do I need to do to change the mobile number?
Sub UpdateUserAcct(ByVal userLogin As String, ByVal strPhoneNumber As String, ByVal strPhoneMobileNumber as String)
Dim dirUser As DirectoryEntry = GetDirectoryEntry()
Dim dirUserSearcher As DirectorySearcher = New DirectorySearcher(dirUser)

I'm designing a program to search through all users in Active Directory and get the lastLoginTimeStamp attribute. From there I'm having a report(.csv) genererated based on who hasn't logged in 30,60, 0r 90 days. I believe I'm having a problem in my loop somewhere. My code works when I LDAP an OU with users inside but when I try to get it to seach subcontainers I get several exceptions thrown at me. Here is a sample of my loop code:
'Initialize and open report file
ReportFile = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter(My.Settings.ReportsPath & "LoginAuditReport.csv", False)

I have a WinForms app with SQL05 backend. It has a standard Login window where users are required to supply a username/password. This is validated using my own code and sprocs. Now one of my big clients has scared the bejezus out of me by saying, "Hey Chris, I want you to change your app in line with all our other IT systems so that users can use their common username and passwords with authentication against LDAP". :confused: Having had a moment to reflect, I have some questions (some very noob in nature!)
1. Is this requirement a big deal? :) Or straightforward to implement?
2. Does this mean that when user's double-click my app icon on the desktop, the authentication automagically happens without the need for a Login screen?
3. How on earth can I test this. My dev environment does not use AD, but I do have SBS2003
4. Can anyone point me to good resources about this on the web?

With this code I can see what happening I'm just showing you what've I've done so far. Basically I want to use an If statement to see if an active directory object contains one of the keywords found in an INI file. I was wondering is this possible with just an IF statement or do I have to use a loop or a for each and how would I do that using one of those two

I have this problem that just recently started happening.I've created this snippet that isolates the problem, which is basically, the same VBScript that used to return all of my users from Active Directory, now only returns the first 100 users.If I filter by group, then i get all of the groups (which is more than 100).The problem started happening last November, then went away for a while and has come back.The server guys tell me that nothing should have changed there.When I run this script for various domains, i get a numbered list of just the first 100 users.I'm running this on IIS (which hasn't changed)[code]

I am using windows 2008 R2 Server and trying to Add a user in active directory .
I am able to save user ID of length less than 20 Characters.But when I am trying to increase this value to 30 characters then I am getting the error.
"System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryServicesCOMException (0x8007001F): A device attached to the system is not functioning. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007001F)"
This error when I searched on net give me various links saying that:
(a)verify if the issue is caused by the length of sAMAccountName
(b)The document of SAM-Account-Name also indicates that the length of it should be less than 20 characters.
I am using the code below to add user in Active Directory

I have multiple web applications that I've built for our intranet. I wanted to allow users to not worry about logging in, so these apps pull the currently logged on user when they hit the site. I used this code for this to happen:
Dim userName As String = User.Identity.Name
CurrentUser = userName.Substring(userName.IndexOf("") + 1)
This works like a charm, no issues here. The next step is to query Active Directory for that logged in user to pull various information. How I currently have it coded, it works like a charm on the devleopment side (typical because I'm not running IIS).The problem becomes when I publish it to my IIS server (Windows Server 2008 R2 running IIS 7.5), I get error messages that point to the specific line in my code that queries Active Directory. The interesting part is these apps were working great last week. They broke after my server admin did the latest batch of Windows Updates (please note, I am running them using .Net Framework 4.0)Before I had each app setup so that Windows Authentication was Enabled, the other Authentication types were disabled. For providers, Negotiate is #1, NTLM is #2. For Advanced Settings, Extended Protection = Off, and Enable Kernel-mode authentication is checked.
[code]...
In doing this I also removed the string that was higher up in my web.config section. This did not work either (fyi, this was a great reference[url]I then tripped across this article: [url] which seemed to be a similar situation. This article eventually referenced "Double Hops", after looking into this and trying a few things, this didn't solve my issue either.Next StepI am going to try a new IIS 7.5 implementation on a different Server 2008 R2 system and essentially start from scratch, to see if the problem recreates or not.
