2005-03-07 Thread Mulnick, Al
To be fair, Exchange setup requires WINS. Without it, setup fails. Outside of that, Exchange requires shortname resolution, but the only answer to verify that you have shortname resolution is to use WINS/Netbios resolution. Can you run without it? Yep. Is it supported? Not currently.

I haven't done it lately, but I would assume you can bind to the root and iterate the children looking for OU objects. You could also create a query that searches the domain for objectClass of organizationalUnit and then add each of the ones you find to the application nodes. An example ldap

Personally? I like to think of AD as a GUI to Microsoft's implementation of LDAP. That simplifies a lot of things for me. However, there is more to it than that and the books you ordered should help in clarifying that. You don't need to know LDAP to make AD work, but it helps. It's a great

Potatoe/Potato sort of thing. It is LDAP and it is an upgrade path from legacy systems such as WINNT. How you use it plays a part. If you use it as a LDAP directory, then it *is* a LDAP directory right? If you use it as a WINNT 5.x domain, then it *is* a WINNT 5.x domain. To say it's a

I wouldn't use SASL for this myself. I don't believe I'd want my customer data in the windows SAM as that could run into scalability issues (that's why we went with AD in a distributed fashion vs. local SAM right?) From your description, a simple bind is the way to go. You'll want to secure the
