Can anyone help with the use of the Invoke method of a
Directory Entry object? I am using vb.net.
I am trying to invoke the get_Filter method of the
IIS://LocalHost directory entry, and get the following
error: System.Reflecti on.TargetInvoca tionException
MSDN Library shows the following for the get_Filter method:
HRESULT get_Filter
([out] VARIANT *pvFilter);
I imagine the problem I am having is the [out] variable.
Do I need to somehow pass a reference to a variable?
Any help would be appreciated.

I would resort to the nativeobject and use the appropriate interface if you
can't get the Invoke to work.
I tried several variations on a similiar Invoke on a standard
DirectoryEntry object and could not get it to work as I expected. However,
the DirectoryEntry is a managed wrapper around the Native ADSI interfaces
so you could use the de.NativeObject property to retrieve the base object
and use the property directly.

Anyone know how to do this in C#?
It's pretty trivial in VB, but is being a PITA in C#. I can call the
Start/Stop methods w/o any problems, but I can't figure out how to read
the current status in C#?
Code looks like this:
DirectoryEntry obDirEntry = new DirectoryEntry
("IIS://localhost/W3svc/1");
obDirEntry.Invoke("Stop", new object {});
// Stop is not a synchronous call, so you have to poll status

Working on revamping our Intranet here and making use of the LDPA, Active

I need to check whether a particular user is already a member of an Active
Directory Security Group.
The following code extract works but only if the user distinguished name is
exactly the same as that returned from Active Directory. For example using
'cn=' in the userdn string instead of 'CN=' does not work.
As far as I am aware Active Directory is not case sensitive and it is
therefore difficult to predict the case of a string.
