ok Let me tell you my actual Use Case: I am developing one tool called ldaphelper. what this tool will do is : ldaphelper -discover : this will connect to local machine and try to find out all available domains (DC Objects) in that ldap DIR and write to XML with som attributes those I needed for another project, that project pick up that XML and add that domain as LDAP domain in my project for Authenticvation purpose.
