Connection to SunONE Directory Server 5.2 through LDAP in C# code

Hi,

I am trying to connect to SunOne Directory Server 5.2 through LDAP in C# code. SunONE server is installed in the Win2000 Server m/c.

I am using the following connection string:

string adPath = "LDAP://IP Address of the Sun server";
LdapAuthentication adAuth = new LdapAuthentication(adPath);

string domainAndUsername = domain + "\\" + username;

DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry( _path, domainAndUsername, pwd);

// Bind to the native AdsObject to force authentication.
Object obj = entry.NativeObject;

After this line this code throws error "The server is not operational"

Can somebody help me in resolving this problem

You may need to specify the port ... also - as in my post on the other site - I am not sure you can use the concept of AD domain and username to bind - as SunONE doesn't really utilize this for binds ...

Not to be a pain but it says in the error "The server is not operational" so you may want to make sure the server is accessable by that computer.

Hi,

I think that the server is not able to bind with the SunONE server as it is not able to create the Object.

Object obj = entry.NativeObject;

I have done further R&D and come to know that this method is only for ADSI(Microsoft). I don't know how to do it for Sun Server.

Can u please help me in knowing how to connect to SunServer through LDAP in C# or JAVA.

Waitinfg for ur reply.
