The NET Developers Guide to Directory Services Programming Microsoft NET Development Series
User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars 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!
5 Stars Great book!
If you are or may be in the future, doing directory services programming then this book is a must have. It also suffices a quick reference as it has code sprinkled around so that you can get up to speed quickly.
If anything, it is sort of lacking on other LDAP directories. It does have the history of LDAP and does show where the differences are between AD and the others.
If your primary focus is other directories, this may not be the end all book for you, but should still suffice as a reference.
If AD is your main focus, buy this now, you won’t be disappointed.
3 Stars Comments on [...] Deveopers Guide Book
This is a very good book for[...] developers who wants to program against Active Directory. There are some good examples in this book that can be very handy. Other than examples in pieces, there is not a project or Web Site codes that a beginner could use.
5 Stars 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.
5 Stars 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!
