ADSI issues.....

[RobofNZ]

Hi Guys,

I'm getting very confused....

My test machine is stand alone so i don't expect it to return a big
list of available domains.

But why won't this return anything at all????

DirectoryEntry ds = new DirectoryEntry("WinNT:");

It doesn't error but doesn't return anything either....?

Why doesn't it return the local mahine?
If i add the machine name to the path it quite happily returns all its
services, users etc but it won't return a root listing???

Does anyone have any ideas please....
I'm trying to add a network browser to my app...

Many thanks,
Rob.

What are you trying to look for then?? How are you expecting it to
"return the list of domains" ?

Check the ds.Children collection - in my case, I'm definitely seeing a
domain in there (with the name I expect, and the "SchemaEntryName" of
"Domain"):

foreach(DirectoryEntry deChild in ds.Children)
{
string name = deChild.Name;
string schema = deChild.SchemaClassName;
}

Do you see anything at all?
