5.0 out of 5 stars
Complete AD programming,
By Brian& Janet Arkills (Stanford University) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Active Directory Programming (Paperback)
This is the only book I've found which deals with ldap based programming of the AD. Every other one out there deals with ADSI, which is OK, but has some limitations. This book also deals with ADSI, but only as it relates to the AD (so other interface specific stuff like for IIS isn't included). Gil does a beautiful job of explaining concepts succintly, while giving a comprehensive treatment of the subject at hand. I approached this book as a beginner, facing a large directory synchronization project, and left feeling prepared to tackle the project. The examples more than adequately met my needs, and this book will serve as a handy reference guide for the next several months at least.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent book,
By y0ink (États-Unis) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Active Directory Programming (Paperback)
This book is an outstanding resource for anyone writing to the ADSI in C++. It covers AD concepts, schema, and security, along with in-depth coverage of ADSI and LDAP. The sample code is outstanding. One of my favorite quotes from the book, prefacing a discussion of COM concepts... "I know Don Box, and I'm no Don Box". Gil is being humble here, as his book shows a real understanding of Active Directory, ADSI and LDAP, along with a writing style which conveys these ideas clearly and effectively. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars
very good,
By A Customer
This review is from: Active Directory Programming (Paperback)
Covers all the essentials, and then some. A lot of good background material for people new to the subject, but not so much that it dominates the book. It then moves quickly onto more advanced areas, and hear its coverage is very good.
