    Question [RESOLVED] Convert a SID to User/Group in ActiveDirectory or LocalMachine

    Hi,

    We are using Microsoft Authorization Manager (Start -> Run -> AzMan.msc). Anyways one of the store mechanism is to store things in an XML file. I need to write a utility which will analyze the file and show it's finding to the user.

    It stores many things among which one is the SID of a User/Group or any object from ActiveDirectory or LocalMachine. Now that I got the SID, how do I find what type of object is it and how do I find it's properties?

    I know I need to use the things from System.DirectoryServices and get things done but I am stuck at resolving what type of an object it is in the first place.

    Could someone please help me out?

    Cheers
