Users Drive To Be Able To Load Them From Specified Directory?
Oct 13, 2010
I have a program that allows the user to choose from 100's of .rtf files and .loadfile them into an rtb. When I build and then deploy the program (version1.0) how are the files that pre-exist on my drive end up available on the users drive to be able to load them from the specified directory? Do I need to make the .rtf files a resource? Or is this process simply "done" when user installs app? By the way, I am using Visual Studio 2008 (Visual Basic).
First off a short background of the project I am working on- I am developing a program that will be run off removable media (i.e. USB Flash drive). This will be a �virtual desktop� which you will be able to take with you and have the same �desktop� on any system. As we know drive letters can change with each host system the drive is plugged into, I need to be able to determine the path for the flash drive and access a specific folder ( i.e. My Documents)
I have an picture box(representing the icon) placed on my form (form1) and when I click the icon I want to be able to open and view the a specific folder from the portable drive. I need a click event that will determine a dynamic drive letter for a directory on the removable drive and then open that directory in an explorer window.
i am trying to create a directory in drive C: (at a win7 target machine) withirectory.CreateDirectory but so far no luck.I believe the problem has to do something with permissions-security... So here i am..
and it works just fine. However, saying that, i need to find a way to loop through ALL the directory's on the "c" drive and not just the main folder. Does anyone have any code that can do that?
I 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).
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim Filename As String = ("*.torrent")
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim strFileSize As String = "" Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo("C:")
[code]....
and it works just fine. However, saying that, i need to find a way to loop through ALL the directory's on the "c" drive and not just the main folder.
I need to add multiple users to active directory in vb.net what would be my best way to do this? Although i see some dotnet classes for them its hard figuring this out for my first time. Mostly what must i be aware of when trying to add them? Multiple opinions on the matter would be fine but I really just wish to add users with basic information like firstname and lastname and maybe to specific group.
I'm trying to pull the username of every user available through active directory. Here is the code my colleague first tried to use, but this method is burning all of the memory out and throwing out of memory exceptions. Is there a quick alternative?
Dim userList As ArrayList = New ArrayList Dim sPath As String = "LDAP://test.ca/OU=foo,OU=bar,OU=foobar,DC=test,DC=ca" Dim myDirectory As New DirectoryEntry(sPath, Nothing, Nothing, AuthenticationTypes.Secure) Dim mySearcher As New DirectorySearcher(myDirectory) mySearcher.Filter = ("(objectClass=user)")
I created a piece of code to create users in our active directory (2003) Everything is working OK and all attributes are set correctly. Only if i logon with a created user i do not get the mapping H: to the homedrive. When looking in ADUC the path to the homedir is correct. Also permissions on the homedir are correct and the user is owner of the dir.
If i correct the path in ADUC to another path and change it back again to point to the homedir the drive mapping is made correctly, so it look's like some kind of attribute is not set correctly. I used ldp.exe to view the created user's attributes before and after modifying the path but don't see any difference.
Tried to create the dir before and after user creation but that's not making any difference.
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 need to create active directory users for my job from a csv file anyone know how to do this? I plan on pulling the users that go into the csv file from a database and
then using office for visual studio.net code automatically create this csv file.
I am trying to retrieve all the users in the Active Directory and dump into a Sql Server Table(Sql2008). I was able to search one employee at a time but could not able to search all the employees in the Active Directory. Basically i want to retrieve 1.SamAccountname and 2.Employeenumber. I am using VS2010/VB.NET/ASP.NET.

I have bunch of users in one of the Active Directory Group. I am adding users from one of my Sql Server table. I want to compare the Active Directory group users with my sql table users and add the users to that group only if they don't exists in that group.
Here is the code I am adding to the AD Group from sql table. Public Sub adUserToGroup() Dim sDomainName As String = ("LDAP:servername.fte.fcteg.com") Dim adUserFolder As DirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP:Servername.fce.findoe.com/DC=fte,DC=foxeg,DC=com") [Code] .....
i am using following code to retive Domain Users from AD
but i am getting APPUser and IUSER in the give
how to avoide this type of user from the list i wantreal user names only
Dim pctx As New PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, "192.1.1.1", "myusername", "mypwd") Dim grp As GroupPrincipal = GroupPrincipal.FindByIdentity(pctx,
I am attempting to programmatically create new users in our active directory. The only part I cannot get is setting a specific accountExpires time. I have tried a number of methods, but none of them have proven profitable.
Code: Dim firstName As String = txtFirstName.Text Dim lastName As String = txtLastName.Text Dim fullName As String = firstName & " " & lastName
I am developing a web site which is basically used to display the properties and attributes of Active Directory users. When i enter a username it should show that particular users full details including : Login Id, first name, lastname, DN, account lockout status, disabled or not,password expiry etc. That is working fine. I also wanted to include USER ACCOUNT EXPIRY DATE, USER CANNOT CHANGE PASSWORD IS SET OR NOT, USER MUST CHANGE PASSWORD IS SET OR NOT. Kindly help me to add the code for these 3 purposes. Below given os the current code which is used to display other all attributes and properties.
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]
In this question I'm using Visual Studio 2008. My code is quite simple, as it was used from a reference I grabbed off the web. I'm using ASP/VB.Net, IIS6.0 on a Windows Server 2003 box.I've looked at various sources online, and have not been able to piece together a proper result. The purpose of this is to list a slew of directories and their respective files, and allow the user to eventually manage that directory (such as open and delete files).
Here is my ASPX page:
<%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeBehind="DirectoryList.aspx.vb" Inherits="VCMReports.DirectoryList" %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
[code]....
When launching the page, the following error appears: 'V:Users' is not a valid virtual path. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: 'V:Users' is not a valid virtual path.
Things I have tried:
On the server, I have mapped out the drive and the directory.Permissions seem to be properly set, impersonate is correct.If I were to list a directory in the actual directory "C:InetpubDirectory", there is no failure.I do understand this is incomplete for the Directory listing portion, this will only list files (so this will need to be modified.I have attempted to create a Virtual Directory, and the application presented the same error. On my local development machine, I have the same path created - same error. How am I able to view the contents of a shared directory and it's files?
I'm a bit new to VB.NET and I have a database which I want to connect to an access backend stored on a network drive for multiple users. I can view the Database in the solution explorer and the directory defaults to the project folder. How can I specify the directory to pull from my network drive? VS has copied this datasource and imported it locally which is fine for testing, but i need the file accessible for multiple users. Is this something I do when publishing?
I want to get a list of all users and groups that belong to a specific department (entered by the user) from Active Directory using VB.Net and DirectoryServices.
I am building an intranet site and i want to display the users email(not the complete email), but the subject, from, date and time. However, the first step would be connecting to the exchange server using the NTLM credentials, which are the same, however, i dont want the user to have to type their password to connect to the email.
im writing a little app to enable authorised staff to reset student passwords but having a few issues. . I am no expert and am now stuck The following code does not seem to error but also does not reset the password! Private Sub bt_pwd_reset_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles bt_pwd_reset.Click
