I am using the following method to copy the contents of a directory to a different directory. public void DirCopy(string SourcePath, string DestinationPath) { if (Directory.Exists(DestinationPath)) { System.IO.DirectoryInfo downloadedMessageInfo = new DirectoryInfo(DestinationPath); foreach (FileInfo file in downloadedMessageInfo.GetFiles()) { file.Delete(); } foreach (DirectoryInfo dir in downloadedMessageInfo.GetDirectories()) { dir.Delete(true); } } //================================================================================= string[] directories = System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories

We are making use of ADLDS for our user management and authentication. We can successfully query the instance without problems. However, trying to perform an operation such as SetPassword will fail or even trying to create a new user if a password is not set, it fails. I can successfully update a user as long as its not password I'm trying to update. I've been reading a lot of different articles relating to this but not finding a resolution. Posting to see if I can get some fresh perspective on this issue, thanks for any input. EXAMPLE ContextType ctxType = ContextType.ApplicationDirectory;

I am trying to fix a bug with SSL in a product and noticed that although the code sets SSL to be true, in the next line in the code SSL is still at false. I wrote a unit test for this and the unit test confirms my suspicions. [TestMethod] public void SecureSocketLayerSetToTrue( ) { var ldapConnection = new LdapConnection( new LdapDirectoryIdentifier( "ldap.test.com", 636 )); ldapConnection.SessionOptions.SecureSocketLayer = true; Assert.IsTrue( ldapConnection.SessionOptions.SecureSocketLayer ); } The test fails. Is there something here that I am missing? It turns out that the way that the

This seemed to have been asked a few years ago at Constraint violation when trying to set "User Cannot Change Password" in active directory from c# but no response actually answered the question sufficiently. I tried reviving the thread because I wanted to hear specifically from the originator as to wether he had solved the issue, but my response was deleted as it is, admittedly, an old question. I hope Resorath sees this as he may have more insight into the problem! Basically, the problem boils down to lack of permissions. More specifically, I have created a service account and delegated full

Thanks for viewing: Hopefully this not only helps others later, but helps us now! (and please be gentle, this my first Question on Stack though I've been a long time user/contributor) Situation (SNAFU) An AD Site aware application is pulling some information out of AD. This application must only connect to controllers within the Active Directory site the server is hosted; if no controllers are found for that site, we have bigger issues but code will handle that possibility. To accomplish this we intend to: Get the site name in which the server hosting the web application resides. Utilize that

I set up my OpenLDAP server on a Ubuntu 19.04 VM and allowed replication (using this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/openldap-server.html#openldap-server-replication ). Everything for replication seems ok. I don't have set up a consumer server as my code will act as one, pulling modified elements regularly. The modified/added entries are correctly retrieved BUT I want to get deleted items and I can't seem to get it to work. As described by the RFC https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4533#section-3.3.2 , I should receive a Sync Info Message Containing an attribute named "syncUUIDs"

Everything I've googled just says you can add them as a string array, but doesn't say what the available options are. What are all the different properties that are available from Directory Services? You can put any of the valid LDAP attributes into PropertiesToLoad - see a list of all Active Directory attributes here - what you need is the Ldap-Display-Name for each attribute you're interested in. Also: Richard Mueller has a site with lots of good info on AD and LDAP - including Excel spreadsheets of the AD attributes (and also a mapping from the Active Directory User & Computer tool to the
