Hi All,

I've written some ASP pages that grab the current users name and then enumerates some of the users properties from AD.

I'm using Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_USER") to get the user name. I'm then doing a query to find that users distinguishedName, so I have to do a series of GetObject commands like this one:


Code:
Set cont = GetObject("LDAP://OU=SBSUsers,OU=Users,OU=MyBusiness,DC=mycompany,DC=local")
When logged on as administrator this works great, but when logged on as a user it fails. I need to specify the administrator credentials to use in my queries but I'm not sure how to do that. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

I hope you find this post helpful. Please let me know if it was.

Regards,

Mark
 
try something like this:

objLdap = GetObject("LDAP:")
objADSIuser = objLdap.OpenDSObject(strLDAPCommand, strAdminUser, strAdminPassword, ADS_AUTHENTICATION_ENUM.ADS_SECURE_AUTHENTICATION)
