MS WINDOWS 2000 ACTIVE DIRECTORY PROGRAMMING (Dv-Msp Programming) - Softcover

Reseña del editor

With "Programming Active Directory Services," developers get the hardcore, hands-on guidance they need to fully exploit the network directory services in the Microsoft "RM" Windows "RM" 2000 operating. The book delivers a concise, conceptual introduction to the technology, then plunges into the how-to's for building powerful distributed applications that use the Active Directory service and the Active Directory Services Interface (ADSI). Developers working with the Microsoft Visual C++ "RM" and Visual Basic "RM" development systems get practical instruction on how to 'directory enable' their Windows 2000-based applications -- including how to take advantage of Active Directory support in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server and other Microsoft technologies. Network administrators will find useful coverage and examples geared to their needs, learning how to use ADSI to automate common administrative tasks. In addition, the book highlights the key differences between Novell Directory Services and Active Directory -- helping readers facilitate application migration. Each chapter examines a different facet of programming with Active Directory, illustrated by a real-world application. Many of these sample programs are ready-to-use utilities -- and all the book's code is packed onto the companion CD-ROM so readers can study and reuse them in their own projects.
