I am developing an application to create users on AD LDS (ADAM in the previous version). I would like to use an Active Directory account to authenticate in AD LDS, and then create and modify users (in AD LDS) but I simply don't know how to do it using VB .Net or C#. This method is used in the ADSI Edit when I choose Advanced and Specify Credentials. After some research I believe that I have to user user Proxy Bind. ADSI Edit permits to bind with a domain account. So I want to replicate that process using VB .Net (preferably) or C#. This is the code that I use to connect to AD LDS: [Code]

I've looked at the "userAccountControl" property and this one seems to have it's flags changed when the account gets disabled.[code]I can't seem to figure out the proper statement to determine if the account is disabled or not. It doesn't seem to work out the same way as the lockout status.[code]
View 4 RepliesI have made a program that i would like to be able to move from PC to PC; at the moment i would have to change the string directories within the program for each PC i would like top run it on.
By having the user select their drive letter and type their account name into a text box could this be implemented into a directory.
Below is the code, as i was hoping it was coded (lol never is tho).

View 4 RepliesI 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?

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 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.

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.
