Query another AD forest

[sn0rg]

Hi Guys

My Company has joined with another, and we have both got a Win 2003 AD. I want to run a query against their AD via ADO as follows:

set ons=getobject("LDAP:")

set ocontainer=ons.OpenDSObject( _
	"LDAP://Company2DC.company2.com/cn=users,dc=company2,dc=com", _
	szUsername, _
	szPassword, _
	ADS_SECURE_AUTHENTICATION and ADS_SERVER_BIND)

	ocontainer.filter=array("user")

	for each ouser in ocontainer
		wscript.echo ouser.distinguishedname
	next

This results in an error on line 3 -
(null): An operations error occurred.

I have verified that the account I specify is valid and can execute a query using an LDAP tool.

If I amend the values to run against my own AD, I have no problem.

Is this your full code? If not post your entire script.

I hope you find this post helpful.
