Hi there,

I have already read and use the "Active Directory Cookbook for Windows 2003
and Windows 2000" and see there are 2nd and 3rd editions. Is there anywhere
on the net which lists the contents of each so I can have a look before
purchase?

RE: [ActiveDir] Active Directory Cookbooks...

2006-09-15 Thread joe 
If you mean you purchased Active Directory Second Edition... Ebay it and
just start reading the Third Edition, I made considerable changes through it
and not just for new stuff. The security and schema chapters and most all of
the scripts got massive work done to them to correct issues, etc. 

Now if you mean you bought the AD Cookbook Second Edition, I would actually
recommend reading Active Directory Third Edition first, then reading the
cookbook as it will make more sense. Alternately, don't read the cookbook
and just treat it as a cookbook where when you need to do something, you
look up the recipe.

I've not yet purchased these books and so am not completely familiar
with the content...

Does anyone have a recommendation for AD programming using .NET?   
VB is my personal poison of choice.  

VBS would probably suffice for my anticipated needs but I do wish to get
more fully familiar with the .NET workings

Thank you.

If you mean you purchased Active Directory Second Edition... Ebay it and
just start reading the Third Edition, I made considerable changes

Re: [ActiveDir] Active Directory Cookbooks...

2006-09-16 Thread Joe Kaplan 
I hope you aren't frustrated by the book being written in C# rather than 
VB.NET.  That rule was imposed by my coauthor and the publisher.  All of the 
code samples are re-written in VB.NET and posted on the website, so 
hopefully that works for you.


For the most part, the actual VB and C# code aren't very different 
(sometimes you just put a ";" at the end of the line :)), so hopefully 
you'll be able to follow along with the gist of the C# in the book.


Someday I'd like to seriously tackle the .NET/scripting angle of DS 
programming by tackling all this stuff from the PowerShell perspective.  I 
think there's a huge audience for that in the future.  It will be 
interesting to see how that works out as well, since the scripting world is 
usually covered by other people (Joe, Robbie, Laura, etc.), but most of them 
haven't done .NET yet.  The theme of my talk at DEC was suggesting that all 
of the DS programmers will eventually end up in the .NET world, as that's 
where all of Microsoft's programming model investment is going.  Joe 
Richards will almost certainly be the last to go (unless he discovers how 
cool PowerShell really is and becomes addicted).

LOL. 

I really actually like LDAP and Win32 API type coding. I do understand
though the draw for some folks for .NET. Just not for me, especially as I
play more and more in the FreeBSD space. ;)

ASP.NET I expect will be the first thing I go into when/if I make a step in
that direction. Something that is completely server side controlled. 

I was into MONAD when it was first announced and very early in the
design/development/beta but they kept cutting back what they initially said
they were going to do with it and I ended up losing interest. I have fear in
how "fat" things are going to get with it. Certainly I am not thrilled with
the stuff being done in Exchange with it that I have seen/heard about. For
example, if I want a list of mailbox sizes of all mailboxes in an org you
need to pull back to the client running the script EVERYTHING about EVERY
mailbox. That may work in a small org but is not optimal in a large size
distributed environment. When I pointed that out I was simply told that is
the MONAD way... That isn't really encouraging for someone who normally
works on environments greater than 100k seats.

Re: [ActiveDir] Active Directory Cookbooks...

2006-09-16 Thread Joe Kaplan 
Someday you need to take a spin through System.DirectoryServices.Protocols 
(.NET 2.0) in C# and see if you like it.  It is a direct interop layer over 
wldap32, exposing the entire feature surface.  It does impose an OO model on 
top of the API, but it is done in a very LDAP-centric way, using the 
connection as the core object and the metaphor of sending and receiving 
messages against that connection.  Everything translates directly to what is 
actually going on.  It is kind of the opposite of ADSI, in which the 
directory objects are the primary metaphor and all of the implementation 
details are buried in the abstraction.  I can totally see why you wouldn't 
want to release a tool based on it, as you take hard dependencies on .NET 
2.0 to use it, but one advantage is that you get free optimized X64 support 
with the same binaries.  :)  For your own stuff that never sees the light of 
day, it might be something you enjoy.


I totally hear you with PowerShell.  My take on it is that the actual core 
of PowerShell is revolutionary and an extremely powerful and well-designed 
thing.  It is also exceptionally harder to learn, so I think that is its 
greatest weakness.


The actual providers that plug into the core are going to be hit and miss 
most likely.  The Exchange stuff is certainly implemented as an extension 
and is not part of the core, so any suckiness in the Exchange programming 
model for PowerShell has to fall on the Exchange team and not reflect on 
PowerShell as a whole.  The Exchange team seems to have a glorious history 
of providing us with terrible APIs (CDOEXM, WebDav, etc.), so I'm not at all 
surprised to hear that their PowerShell implementation will miss the mark.


My solution to this is to always try to avoid having to program Exchange.  I 
didn't even mention it in my book.  :)

With a food cookbook it kind of makes sense to just dip into it when you
want to find out how to make something. With AD, it's useful to read the
whole thing - that way you find (or I find!) lots of things which I
never knew existed or could be done!
