Accessing MS AD using SSL and LDAPS

[parthap]

Hi,

I have a class which i am using to create user in the MS Active Directory. Previously the code was running fine and I can query the AD and also can create the user.

Now I want to submit my resquest to the AD using SSL and LDAPS.

But when I change my config file LDAP to LDAPS its throwing unknown error.

the code snipet is below..
string RootDSE;
DirectoryEntry _de = new DirectoryEntry(Path);
DirectorySearcher DSESearcher = new DirectorySearcher(_de);
try
{
RootDSE = DSESearcher.SearchRoot.Path;
RootDSE = RootDSE.Insert(7, ADUsersPath);
System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry myDE = new DirectoryEntry(RootDSE,null,null,AuthenticationTyp es.Secure);
DirectoryEntries myEntries = myDE.Children;
DirectoryEntry myDirectoryEntry = myEntries.Add("CN=" + UserPrincipalName, "user");

when I am using LDAPS i am getting the error when adding the entry.
Help require to how to access AD over SSL and LDAPS.

Thanks in Advance

Welcome to the site. What is your framework version and OS? What exactly is the error message? Have you see this article - How to enable LDAP over SSL with a third-party certification authority? Thanks.
