Active directory in c#

[fayazmd]

Hi,

I want to get full name and city from outlook properties. For this i used active directory. I am getting fullname but unable to get city. Here is my code

System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry ADEntry = new System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("WinNT://Domain/" + userid);
string FullName = ADEntry.Properties["FullName"].Value.ToString();

Any help appreciated.

And i want to know his out of office status also.

I am working in asp.net 2.0, C#.

How does ActiveDirectory = Outlook?

I believe he means he has Outlook setup to use AD for information.

Here is what I have in my C# program

            try
            {
                object obj = entry.NativeObject;
                DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
                search.Filter = "(sAMAccountName=" + username + ")";
//Get full name
                search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn");
//Get account name
                search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("sAMAccountName");
//Get title
                search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("title");
                SearchResult result = search.FindOne();
                if (null == result)
                {
                    return false;
                }
                //update the new path to the user
                _path = result.Path;
                _filterAttribute = (string)result.Properties["cn"][0];
 
                //Set the session variables.
                Login._userInfo["Name"] = (string)result.Properties["cn"][0];
                Login._userInfo["Account"] = (string)result.Properties["sAMAccountName"][0];
                Login._userInfo["title"] = (string)result.Properties["title"][0];
 
            }
            catch (System.Exception ex)
            {
                throw new System.Exception(ex.Message);
            }
 

All you would need to do is add search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("city");

My apologies for unclear description.

Here is the thing what exactly i want.

I need to get all the members of DistributionList and details of employee based on his id. For this, I am using LDAP. I am getting few things. Here is my code.

DirectorySearcher search;
DirectoryEntry entry;
SearchResult result;
String mailid = "";
bool flag = false;


entry = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://Domain", "uid", "pwd");

search = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
search.Filter = "CN=DL Name";
int i = search.Filter.Length;

string str = "";
foreach (SearchResult AdObj in search.FindAll())
{

foreach (String objName in AdObj.GetDirectoryEntry().Properties["member"])
{
//str += Convert.ToString(objName) + "<Br>";
int selIndex = objName.IndexOf("CN=") + 3;
int selEnd = objName.IndexOf(",OU") - 3;
//str1 += objName.Substring(selIndex, selEnd).Replace("\\", "") + "<BR>";

DirectorySearcher dsSearch = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
dsSearch.Filter = "CN=" + objName.Substring(selIndex, selEnd).Replace("\\", "");
foreach (SearchResult rs in dsSearch.FindAll())
{
str += "&lt;><font face='calibri' color='#2266aa' size=2>" + Convert.ToString(rs.GetDirectoryEntry().Properties["mail"].Value) + "|" + Convert.ToString(rs.GetDirectoryEntry().Properties["displayName"].Value) + "|" + Convert.ToString(rs.GetDirectoryEntry().Properties["sAMAccountName"].Value) + "|" + Convert.ToString(rs.GetDirectoryEntry().Properties["department"].Value) + "|" + /*Convert.ToString(rs.GetDirectoryEntry().Propertie s["memberOf"].Value)+ */ Convert.ToString(rs.GetDirectoryEntry().Properties["l"].Value) + "&lt;></p>";
}
}
}
// Response.Write("&lt;BR>" + str + "&lt;Br>" + str1 + "&lt;BR>");
Response.Write(str + "&lt;BR>");


If i am passing one DL its working fine. But if i am changing DL name to other existing DL its not displaying. Its coming out of foreach loop from dsSearch.FindAll().

Where i am going wrong. And i need to get his department also.
