Active Directory Attribute List Using c#
15,392
Solution 1
If you're on .NET 3.5 and up, you need to check out the classes in System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory
for this. You need to look at classes like ActiveDirectorySchema
and ActiveDirectorySchemaClass
.
You can get hold of the current AD schema by using:
ActiveDirectorySchema currSchema = ActiveDirectorySchema.GetCurrentSchema();
When you have the current schema, you can inspect the various class definitions, e.g.:
ActiveDirectorySchemaClass userSchema = currSchema.FindClass("person");
Once you have that object, you can inspect and enumerate its properties, things like:
- MandatoryProperties
- OptionalProperties
and so on to get an insight into the AD schema.
Solution 2
DirectoryEntry dir = new DirectoryEntry();
dir.Path = "LDAP://YourActiveDirServername ";
DirectorySearcher sea = new DirectorySearcher(dir);
sea.Filter = "(sAMAccountName=Uname)";
SearchResult seares = sea.FindOne();
StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
System.DirectoryServices.ResultPropertyCollection prop = seares.Properties;
ICollection coll = prop.PropertyNames;
IEnumerator enu = coll.GetEnumerator();
while (enu.MoveNext())
{
str.Append(enu.Current + " = " + seares.Properties[enu.Current.ToString()][0] + "\n");
}
