Hello,
I'm trying to retrieve the user's properties from Active Directory. I
was able to retrieve all the user properties, however, I wassnt able
to get the manager's user name. What I got was the path of the user
name : CN="Display Name", CN=myCompany,CN=COM..
Here is the
private string[] FindProps(String userAccount)
{
DirectoryEntry entry = new
DirectoryEntry("LDAP://mypc.mydomain.com");
String account = userAccount.Replace(@"mydomain\", "");
DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
search.Filter = "(SAMAccountName=" + account + ")";
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("displayName");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("mail");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("department");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("title");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("manager");
SearchResult result = search.FindOne();
string[] props = new string[10];
props[0] = result.Properties["displayname"][0].ToString();
props[1] = result.Properties["mail"][0].ToString();
props[2] = result.Properties["department"][0].ToString();
props[3] = result.Properties["manager"][0].ToString();
props[4] = result.Properties["title"][0].ToString();
return props;
} function i used to retrieve all the user props. 8 14182

This is normal, the Manager attribute is an Object(DS-DN) type attribute
that refers to the manager's user object. If you want the details of this
object you need to query it's properties.
I would suggest you to check the "Active Directory Schema" in the docs
before you start coding against the AD, it's fundamental that you understand
the formal definitions of the attributes of the objects you want to
retrieve.

Yes, that's the way it was designed. If you need details for the
manager, you will now need to grab his DN (distinguishedName), bind to
it, and retrieve that user's properties.

I attached an example of something I threw together to do a quick search
of AD.
