Active Directory Programming Tutorial

Besides msn, does anyone know a good site or tutorial to learn about AD programming?

Is there something specific you need? I know some of it.

Nothing specific.

My team lead requested I look into it as I will be using it a bit. So I got some free time, and can just as well learn it "inside out"

Actually, I know zit about it.

I just posted a code snippet for Creating a new user in AD.

I found a whole page of them :)

thanks rob :)

these damn googlers...of course i can also google it, i'm stupid not dumb. Reason for posting is I know someone would have been where I am now in the past, and might know about a handy place to learn that make it easier, interesting, etc etc.... :mad:

I'd start with MSDN.

I watched this movie a few years ago.

Half, or more, of the answers on this forum comes from Google searchs.

I'd say more then half, but ....

Its usually best when you have a project idea or something small to start out wiith. This hands on experience will be better that any book or video (unless it has walk through examples ;)).

Do you have anything in mind?

Maybe I should be more clear when asking that. And also less rude when someone suggest "Just Google It!"

Of course one will find help on google, msdn, etc. But we all know you normally have to shift through tons of links before getting to something usefull, and even then might find out hours later, you are wasting your time.

So I am hoping that we could advise each other. "I suggest you try this, because of that, and don't waste your time on that because of this, blah blah, blah"

Anycase, I selected some sample code of CodeProject, backing myself up with msdn to look up keywords used, etc.

Would like to get hold of a more advanced practical example explaining stuff as you get along now. After I watched Lienna's movie..did not have my headphones here yesterday..

Do you have access to any books that you can check out?

I got a book on Active Directory itself, which is giving me some insight and understanding. I will see what is in the lib. Not gonna buy books for this, as I'm too broke and it's not like if it is for an exam. Can search for questions that comes up later
