Displaying AD info

Post by **daerne** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 1:52 am

I am using LDAP://RootDSE to connect to my local Active Directory. I am assuming that it connects to my master server's active directory database. I was wondering how do you connect to a particular's servers AD (some of our servers aren't replicating and need to display its data)? I was going to use LDAP://DC=XX,DC=com to try and test connect...if someone can give me pointers, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Is alexandrelobao, the name of your server and why does localhost:389, need to be added?

I'm getting errors when trying to connect. Just want to verify that this will work with the syntax I'm using:

Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://bocnet00:389/DC=contso,DC=com")strDNSDomain = objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")

The error code being kicked back is "The directory property cannot be found in the cache".

Yes, sir...I had one more line of code to try to display the data, but I've completely removed everything.

Huh. Weird. I cannot make it break on my machine.
