View 3 RepliesIs it possible (I'm sure it is) to validate a user's credentials against Active Directory without using Directory Services?I'm building a Browser-Based WPF application which requires users to login to and get validated via Active Directory. Since .Net 4.0 (or maybe 3.5) accessing Directory Services from an Application requires the application to be fully trusted. Since IE won't provide full trust to an application if it doesn't have the signing certificate in it's cert store, the application is refused startup permission.
If I don't use Directory Services, then I can leave the application as Partial Trust and validate my user's credentials without having to install a certificate on each user's machine.

View 1 RepliesThe sub below will show all of the directories contain with a directory
Code:
Private Sub showDirectories(ByVal rootDirectory As String)
Dim rootDirectories() As String = IO.Directory.GetDirectories(rootDirectory)
[code]....
When I run this code I can use any directory as the root directory except My Documents.When I use the directory path with My Documents, as well as finding all of the folders contained in My Documents, it finds three extra: My Music, My Pictures and My Videos. Those three folders do not exist at all in My Documents. I have checked hidden files and folder and they are definately not there yet the showDirectories() sub says that they are.The exact error is: Access to the path 'C:UsersMichaelDocumentsMy Music' is denied.It's dened because the folder doesn't exist. I have checked myself using Windows Explorer!Despite this, when I type 'file:///C:/Users/Michael/Documents/' in the address bar of Google Chrome, it shows all of the files and folders in My Documents and, guess what, it shows the folders My Music, My Pictures and My Videos. But Windows Explorer doesn't show these! The strange thing is, for each of the folders, the last Date Modified was 23/01/2011 13:42:49 exactly. Each of the folders was last modified at that exact second simultaneously!I have 3 "ghost" folders "haunting" my My Documents. Is there any programs out there that perform "exorcisms" cause I am seriously freaked out!Perhaps this is the wrong place to post this. When I started writing this thread, it was about Visual Basic but now I realise it has nothing to do with programming at all.
I am trying to code a Search option for the user to search for any word in the KJV Bible in my program and the search should return every instance of the search word or phrase i.e. "Love".I checked the MSDN and forums and found an example that uses the FindInFiles method.

Under the click_event of the Go button, I have the following code (it returns the error "IOException was Unhandled"..."The directory name is Invalid".)

View 2 RepliesI having a program built in VB.Net and would like to take in the users windows name and then compatre that with a security group in AD, if they are in a certain group then redirect them to the next page otherwise block them.I have tried many ways using many different snippets of code from different forums, but cannot find a code piece of code that works?
View 6 RepliesI would like to have all properties on a user from active directory. I find some property name as :
distinguishedName, SAMAccountName, sn, givenName, TelephoneNumber, mail
If you have a list of property? As each user has an ID in AD ?
I'm having a weird problem with active directory and the display name attribute. I can create an AD account with no problems, the account shows up, I can log on as the account, everything appears to be working as intended. The problem is, our company requires that the display name be in the form of "Lastname, Firstname". Thats all fine and dandy when you create an AD account use the MMC snap-in, you type in the users name as "Lastname, Firstname" in the display name field and when the account is created, the display name shows as "Lastname, Firstname" as you would expect.
The problem I am having is this, whenever I create an AD account programmatically, I can't for the life of me get the display name to show up as "Lastname, Firstname". The displayname property is set as such, checking the AD account using the MMC snap-in shows the display name is set correctly, but when looking at the list of user accounts, the account is always displayed as the users username. The account name I am using is "Test User", see pic below.
if you try to rename the account, the field it tells you it is editing is called Full Name? I can't find a property in AD even called Full Name so I am completely confused, here is a picture of me trying to rename the programmatically created account, as you can see, the display name field is set correctly even though it doesn't display that way. And of course, after renaming the account as seen below, the display name shows up correctly as "Lastname, Firstname"Here is the code I use to create the account, just for reference.
Public Sub CreateActiveDirectoryAccount(ByVal sUserName As String, ByVal sFirstName As String, _
ByVal sLastName As String, ByVal sUserPrincipalName As String, ByVal sPassword As String, _
ByVal sHomeDrive As String, ByVal sHomeDirLocation As String, _

View 1 RepliesIm trying to connect to AD and carry out some basic tasks for a .Net application written in VB .Net. I would like to create the application so when it loads, it automatically binds to the default AD domain that the user is logged onto. This has led me to writing the code
Dim domain As DirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://DC=domain,DC=com", Nothing, Nothing, AuthenticationTypes.Secure)
domain.RefreshCache()
But this doesnt work.
i am trying to get a list of all users in the active directory on a domain. The following code is being used but doesnt seem to work:
Public Function GetAllUsers(ByVal ldapServerName As String) As Hashtable
'To retrieve list of all LDAP users
'This function returns HashTable

Then i get the "find people" box pop up. So i know i have the correct LDAP but not sure why the other information is preventing it from working..
