I fixed the problem by adding the server name to the LDAP string, e.g. <LDAP://domainname.com/DC=domainname,DC=com>; etc... If I just did <LDAP://DC=domainname,DC=com>, it wouldnt let me query certain fields. I don't know why.
I am using flags attribute for an application I am building using ASP and ADSI. Would you recommend not using that attribute? It is an optional attribute, so I thought I could use it for a custom application. Otherwise I might have to add a new attribute to the schema.
