Get Server Domain

Using vbscript I can get the domain of a server by binging to the WinNT provider and then getting the ADsPath

Set comp = GetObject("WinN T://MyComputer"
sComputerAndDom ain = comp.ADsPat

How do I do the same using c# and the .net framework

Thank

Following code works for me

using System.Director yServices
...
DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry( "WinNT://Server03a")
string domain = entry.Parent.Na me
Console.WriteLi ne(domain)
...

Note in general System.Director yServices does not provide access to all the ADSI functionality, so you may need to resort to adding a reference to the COM ADSI library (activeds.tlb) - then you will have access to the functionality you are familiar with

After a server created cookie is processed on the client I want it removed, cleared, or expired in the javascript block but have been unable to do this.

If I subsequently create the cookie again in the codebehind then I actually end up with TWO cookies with the same name in the response. The cookie...
