How to get all AD attirbutes, group/user data with C# web app?

[ADNet77]

Hi All,

I am new for Active Directory. Is there any successful example codes for getting all Active Directory attribute names, group data and user information data with C# under ASP.NET 2.0?


Thanks advance

Use System.DirectoryServices namespace.

Here is sample code.

string loginPath="WinNT://"+Environment.MachineName+",computer";
System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry AD = new
System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry(loginPath) ;
System.Collections.ArrayList users = new System.Collections.ArrayList();
System.Collections.ArrayList groups = new System.Collections.ArrayList();
System.Collections.ArrayList services = new
System.Collections.ArrayList();
foreach(System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry dir in AD.Children)
{
if(dir.SchemaClassName=="User")
{
users.Add(dir);
}
if (dir.SchemaClassName=="Group")
{
groups.Add(dir);
}
}
for (int i=0; i<users.Count; i++)
{

this.cboUsers.Items.Add(((System.DirectoryServices .DirectoryEntry)((users[i]
))).Name );
}
for (int i=0; i<groups.Count; i++)
{

this.cboGroups.Items.Add(((System.DirectoryService s.DirectoryEntry)((groups[
i]))).Name );
}
