RE: [ActiveDir] finding GCs

[Creamer, Mark]

I think it’s a compiled application that is called by the web app. But I’ll know more tomorrow. We’re supposed to meet to discuss it. I’ll at least try to find out what they’re doing a little more clearly   <mc> -----Original Message----- From: Tony Murray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 3:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] finding GCs   Mark, can you maybe post the code, as this will help us pinpoint the problem?  If you have multiple domains, it probably depends more on which domain the universal group was created in than whether the DC is a GC or not.    Tony   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Donnerstag, 11.

It works great, except that now we are in native mode and are using some universal groups. The app will work properly as long as it happens to hit a DC that is also a GC. But from what they're telling me, it won't work for Universals if the app searches for a DC and finds one that does not happen to be a GC.   So what I'm looking for, is whether there is a LDAP query component that they can use in their app that will always only find DCs that are also GCs?   Thanks,   Mark Creamer Systems Engineer Cintas Corporation Honesty and Integrity in Everything We Do
