LDAP to populate SQL 2000/Active Directory

Hello all - I have a LDAP service running on a NT4 box (not a mbr of
my AD domain), I'd like to extract the users/attributes from that LDAP
service and populate my AD domain with those users and attributes (the
user accounts in LDAP will go into AD and the attributes for those
users will go into SQL Server 2000 database). Does anyone know of a
tool or how I can go about doing this? (the SQL server is a mbr of the
AD domain)

MS didn't have an LDAP group but if someone knows of a way for me to
extract the data from LDAP into a whatever format and do this sort of
mapping in AD - I'd appreciate the sharing of knowledge - Thanks in
advance.

SQL Server supports AD, but not "any old LDAP", such as you have. DB2 has
proper AD support and generic LDAP support, but you'll have to read the
manuals for both DB2 and your unspecified LDAP provider.

The simplest solution is for you to use an AD-based LDAP (you mention that
you do have an AD domain), rather than whatever NT4 LDAP you've located.
That MS doesn't have a group for your LDAP is not surprising - MS do not
have an NT4 LDAP product. They do have groups that handle AD integration
with other LDAP suppliers, but whether yours is discussed is hard to tell,
since you failed to identify it. MS also have a metadirectory product.

Hello Everyone, My company has asked me to put a company directory on our intranet site and I'm trying to use php to extract the users from our active directory server.

What do you think would be the best way to get the list to be sorted by...

Hey all, Working on revamping our Intranet here and making use of the LDPA, Active Directory, Directory Services, etc. that .Net provides.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
