| Hi,I am writing an application that will authenticate users via windows integrated security. Once the user has logged on, they will be granted access to parts of the application based on the features the administrator has granted them.The question I have is: What .net components/classes are available to assist in the administration of this. For example, when initially granting NT/2000 users access to the system, I would like to be able to browse the domain and select a user, then grant that user the application specific access rights they require. What I would like to avoid is entering the domain\username manually. So something like in enterprise manager where you can browse the network logins to grant access to would be good.Any ideas greatfully received.Aaron Collett |

| Obviously, you would have to write this tool yourself. Look into System.DirectoryServices MSDN should be a good starting point. You will use this to browse the active directory (I think you can use it on non-AD Domains as well, not 100% sure on that though).-Chadhttp://www.clrsoft.comSoftware built for the Common Language Runtime. |

I thought that I would have to write it myself - didn't make that clear. Thanks for the info, I will have a look at that namespace and see what the options are. As long as I can get something that works in a similar way to SQLDMO where it can discover the SQL Servers running on the network - except for DC's then it will be perfect.Thanks again.Aaron Collett |
