You actually shouldn't have to use Interop or
PInvoke like that to authenticate to AD using VB.Net. I do it all the time
in WinForms using the DirectoryEntry class, which allows you to pass creds
to your AD connection. You just need to front those creds with a simple form and
away you go. Ju
Matt,
I went through a similar 'thought experiment' a few years
ago. Whilst I didn't actually test my conclusions, I arrived at the decision
that the original domain could actually be completely removed and the SID
history data would still be valid and usable to access resources. i.e. there
Brett, correct me please. Apparently, the estimate is performed
by looking at the couple top levels of the B-tree representing one of the indexes
that span all records.
I’ve been told by Jet guys that these estimates are correct
within two orders of magnitude. On the bright side, they are

Hi,
Can anyone point me in the direction of some VB.Net examples
of authenticating users against
AD using a Windows form and not asp.net?
All the examples I can find are forms based authentication
for asp.net. I’ve loaded the template

Thanks for the plug on the book. Ch 12 is all about programmatic
authentication. We cover the DirectoryEntry approach suggested by
Darren as well as the LogonUser approach suggested by Brian. The code
samples (in C# and VB.NET) are available for free from
www.directoryprogramming.net.

Microsoft is working on an updated Forest Recovery guide for
Windows Server 2003, however, the basic procedures for full forest recovery are
still the same as you’d have to do for a Windows 2000 AD forest. And for
the later a guide already exists:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/detail
There's a whitepaper on Microsoft's website. I think there are several blogs out there talking about same. Things to look for? Timing of backups. Name resolution. Time sync. DA accounts. Backups from DC's or GC's (you'll want to pay attention to that). Role holders.

out RegToADM which will take an exported reg file and make an ADM file for

Thanks Al for advices. :) Guido pointed me to some very usefull papers on recovery. Maybe my first job will be to understand the different types of AD recovery in order to master the whole procces. Some questions i have to face are : -> What if a whole domain crashes (Root and Childs) ? ->
Jeff,
This should do the trick – been using
it for years – servers that the GPO is applied to will need a reboot
after the import.

Check the properties of the zone in DNS management. If the zone's
replication scope is forest-wide or to all domain controllers, you'll
need to adjust the dn of the record to show the appropriate partition.

I think that's a very good way to approach it. Guido is really the expert on such processes and I tip my hat to him on that. :)Some things to consider as you take this approach: Write down what you're thinking. Why? Because it'll help to focus the thoughts. This can have a lot of moving parts in
Bruce, try the command that Andrew posted and see what results you get. Other things to check: Are the domains integrated? Primary? How are the reverse and forward zones configured? I'm surprised to hear the record is not in WINS. I assume then that it's not a Windows server then? What type of se

Wouldn't it be more reliable to configure the listserv to automatically

mail servers all being correctly configured (which seems unlikely to me).

This is likely going to be very difficult to get out of since you changed the

are strong recommendations to do testing and use LDIF files instead of editing
