LDAP - Get all dommains in forest

[jugomez]

Hi!

I am trying to get all domain names in the whole forest. Let me try to picture the scenario:

**Entire directory
->Domain_1.com (my computer belongs to this domain!!)
-Builtin
-Computers
-Domain Controllers
-Subomain1.Domain_1.com
-Subomain2.Domain_1.com
-etc...
**Domain_2.com
**Domain_3.com

I have tried the classic examples on the Internet, but all of them will get me everything under the Entire directory (because that's where my computer belongs).

Now, what I need is to get the names for ALL domains, including the ones that are outside Entire Directory (Domain_2.com and Domain_3.com).

I though I would be able to achieve this by calling the global directory, but it will still only get me info only for Domain_1.com

Private Sub GCTesting()
    Dim oGC As IADs
    Dim oDomainEnum As IADs
    Dim oDomainBind As IADs
    Dim oChild As IADs
    
    Set oGC = GetObject("GC:")
    For Each oDomainEnum In oGC
        ' Print the name of the domain.
        Debug.Print oDomainEnum.Name
        
        ' Bind to the domain.
        Set oDomainBind = GetObject("LDAP://" + oDomainEnum.Name)
        
        ' Enumerate the child objects of the domain.
        For Each oChild In oDomainBind
            Debug.Print "  " & oChild.Name
        Next
    Next
    
End Sub

Is it actually possible to get all domain names (even the ones outside Entire Directory)? I think it should be possible somehow, since I can see the Domain_2.com and Domain_3.com by looking at the windows Location screen. So if I can see it from windows, I guess it should be also possible to do it from VB6.

I appreciate any help on this

found this...

http://vbnet.mvps.org/index.html?cod...umprinters.htm

but it says it is for enumerating printers, domains, print providers...

but in the same search using my friends (yahoo, google, ask, answers, bing) I found this...

Good Luck

Thanks a lot for the examples, but those will use old WinS API. LDAP is different from that.
