Indispensable Reading
If you ever tried to code against AD you probably noticed that the MSDN help files are basically non-existent. After reading this book I was coding against our AD in one day. This is the bible on this rather esoteric subject.
Ok book - Some good information - BUT
This book is pretty good and it has some good examples.
The problem is that the author is all over the place in this book and does not use any of the examples in any way that would be helpful!
The author's writing style leaves much to be desired. I don't know why so many people have given it such high ratings?
I know that this is a tough topic but come on I think if you know a subject you can do better than this.
Best book for AD & ADAM programmers
This is definitively a must have in the bookshelf of all .NET AD Developers. I have been working with ADAM since .NET 1.1 and have always struggle to find answers to simple questions like how to make an LDAP query to run efficiently or how to define complex queries; this book has that and a lot more.
If you do AD programming, you need this book!
This book is everything I was hoping it would be. I'm working on a project where I need to get computer accounts from AD (TENS of THOUSANDS of them) and move, delete, enable, disable and set account expiration dates. Everything I need to know is in this book. The AD paged search, useraccount properties, etc. Some of the routines I was able to use as-is (the VB versions from their web site download). These guys do a great job of explaining all the stuff I couldn't find anywhere else. Highly reccomended!
well done!
This book is great for anyone who does AD programming with .NET it covers everything from the basics to some pretty advanced stuff and even some undocumented stuff.. a must have for AD Programemrs!
