View 1 RepliesI use this code to get the groups of the current user. But I want to manually give the user and then get his groups. How can I do this?
[code]....
I've been searching for a solution to get a list of the AD Groups for at specific AD user. I'll need the current user logged in and would like to query by the username. The problem is that all the solutions I find on the web uses System.DirectoryServices - and I can't find the dll in my .Net 4.0 webproject (I only have System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement) - so I can't use any of the examples that I've found. Is there a difference way to query the AD through 4.0 compared to 2.0? I could really use some examples, articles or just good advise to get moving - I'm kind of stuck at the moment.

View 1 RepliesIn C#, how do i access Active Directory to get the list of groups that a certain user belongs to?
The user details are in the form:
"MYDOMAINmyuser"
I've been following the instructions from here but they only work if i have the user details in the form:
"LDAP://sample.com/CN=MySurname MyFirstname,OU=General,OU=Accounts,DC=sample,DC=com"
So maybe what i'm asking is, how to get from the first, shorter, form to the fully qualified form below?
I am having trouble using UserPrincipal.GetGroups in System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.
When I use the following code:
PrincipalSearchResult<Principal> groups = userPrincipal.GetGroups();
foreach (GroupPrincipal g in groups){
Console.WriteLine(g.DisplayName);
}
I get the error "The value for the property AttributeScopeQuery cannot be set" in the foreach loop. I also get the same error when using groups.Count()I have read things that indicate this may be due to having some Windows 2000 domain controllers in the domain and so meaning it does not support ASQ.
What is the best way of doing this? The best I have come up with, since most of the rest of my code is running fine using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement is using the GetUnderlyingObject method of the UserPrincipal to get a DirectoryEntry and enumerating the values of the memberOf attribute. Using LINQ the code is quite compact:
var groups = from string groupPath in
((DirectoryEntry)userPrincipal.GetUnderlyingObject()).Properties["memberOf"]
select new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" + groupPath).Name.Replace("CN=", "");
foreach(groupName in groups){
Console.WriteLine(groupName);
}
I am using the following LDAP string:
(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(!description=Generic*)(!cn=*-))
is it possible to modify this string to also include security groups that are located within a particular OU?
I'm trying to get the groups a user is member of from an Open Ldap using vb.net 3.5.
Although so far I have managed to connect to the ldap server and get the user's info like sn, givenname, description, mail, adspath,
I have absolutely no information about the user's groups.
My code is like this:
Dim oEntry as New DirectoryEntry
Dim oSearcher as New DirectorySearcher
oEntry = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://myServer/ou=test, dc=example, dc=com", username, pwd, AuthenticationTypes.ServerBind)
oSearcher = New DirectorySearcher(oEntry, "(uid=" & uName & ")")
oResult = oSearcher.FindOne()
if not oResult is Nothing then
Dim ADUser as DirectoryEntry
ADUSer = oResult.GetDirectoryEntry()
end if
Well, ADUser has no info on user membership whatsoever.
Am I doing something wrong? Should I use System.DirectoryServices.Protocols as I saw someone mentioning instead
of System.DirectoryServices or is .Protocols just for Framework 2.0?
In my organization we use nested groups. For a particular usage, we have a group (let's assume that the group name "kuku"), and the names of all the nested groups under it contains "kuku" as well.
We may assume that no other group in the LDAP has "kuku" in the name.
I need to create a filter which will return all the users which belong to one of the "kuku"s group.
Obviously, using this filter will bring only the head kukus
(&(&(objectclass=user)(objectclass=person))(memberOf=CN=kuku,cn=...rest of the group DN...))
How can I use wild card to fetch all users which belong to any kuku?
For example: (&(&(objectclass=user)(objectclass=person))(memberOf=CN=.*kuku.*))
I am using System.directory services namespace in framework 2 to query active directory. I have used fixed user account impersonisation in the web.config file, find the code:
<identity impersonate="true" userName="enterprise ang09" password="Telcome123"/>
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
I have disabled anonymous access in IIS. Also i have given Read & write access to the account tang09 for the website virtual directory and Microsoft.NET folder located in windows folder. But still i get prompted for the domain username and password to access the website.
I want to learn how to add/delete/update account (including adding mail boxes for new users). Can someone point to a good book where I can begin from. I want to start with some real basics and build from there.

I am updating some CS code that was written in 2004, and that references some assemblies which extract user data from AD by query filtering on the user's title. I can't test my updated code in VS2010 because the assemblies no longer compile - the references are no longer valid (I can't create a DirectoryEntry or DirectorySearcher) so I need to work out how to replace the code with current directoryservices.accountmanagement namespace properties and methods. I have searched around but don't seem to be getting anywhere. give me some code that will work with vs 2010 to replicate the following:
