How to get / update Contacts in Active Directory?

Question

Is there a way to find and update contacts in Active Directory? I am creating a sample C # .NET application to achieve this. I would appreciate any code.

Answer 1

Of course, you can do this in System.DirectoryServices.

I think you really need to learn how to use System.DirectoryServices . If you do not have a good book yet, I recommend this one .

, . , DirectoryEntry DirectorySearcher. DirectoryEntry LDAP LDAP. , , LDAP, , DirectoryEntry. LDAP . , , - objectCategory objectClass. objectCategory person, objectClass contact. "targetAddress" , . Exchange. , , . LDAP, , AD Explorer ADSI

, DirectorySearcher.

• LDAP

DirectoryEntry rootDSE = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://RootDSE");
string domainContext = rootDSE.Properties["defaultNamingContext"].Value as string;
DirectoryEntry searchRoot = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" + domainContext);
using (DirectorySearcher searcher = new DirectorySearcher(
    searchRoot, 
    "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=contact))", 
    new string[] {"targetAddress"}, 
    SearchScope.Subtree))
{
    foreach (SearchResult result in searcher.FindAll())
    {
        foreach (string addr in result.Properties["targetAddress"])
        {        
           Console.WriteLine(addr);
        }
        Console.WriteLine(result.Path);
    }
}

DirectoryEntry de = new DirectoryEntry(result.Path);

de.CommitChanges();

.Net 3.5 System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement, AD , System.DirectoryServices.

string sUserName = "someusertoload";
string sDomain = "test.local";
string sDefaultOU = "OU=test,DC=test,DC=local";
string sServiceUser = "userwithrights";
string sServicePassword = "somepassword";
PrincipalContext oPrincipalContext = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, sDomain, sDefaultOU,ContextOptions.SimpleBind, sServiceUser, sServicePassword);
UserPrincipal oUserPrincipal = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(oPrincipalContext, sUserName);
oUserPrincipal.GivenName = "new givenname";
oUserPrincipal.Save();

.Net 2.0, "john" . , , , , .

DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://server/DC=test,DC=local");
DirectorySearcher searcher = new DirectorySearcher( root, "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=john))" );

DirectoryEntry user = result.GetDirectoryEntry();
user.Properties["streetAddress"][0] = "My Street 12";
user.CommitChanges();
