Getting user info from LDAP with GUID

EDN Admin · Feb 22, 2012

I have this piece of code, in C/C++.
 
 
IADs *pADsGUID,*pADs; 
BSTR bstr; 
char buffer[101]; 
 
 
HRESULT hr = CoInitialize(NULL); 
if (hr != S_OK) { return 0; } 
 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re //get GUID from local PC 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re hr=ADsGetObject(L"WinNT://mydomain/me", IID_IADs, (void**) &pADs); 
if (hr != S_OK) 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re { 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re printf("failed to getn"); 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re return 0; 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re } 
 
if( S_OK == pADs->get_ADsPath(&bstr)) { 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re printf("Object first AD Path: %Sn",bstr);<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re
 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re } 
if( S_OK == pADs->get_GUID(&bstr)) { 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re printf("Object GUID: %Sn",bstr);<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re
 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re } 
 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re //MUST FIND A BETTER WAY 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re char pszFilter[100] = "LDAP://mydomain/"; 
sprintf(buffer,"%S",bstr); 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re printf("buffer %sn",buffer); 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re unsigned int i = 0; 
for(i = 0; i < strlen(buffer); ++i){ 
<span class="x_Apple-tab-span" style="white-space

re if (buffer == {){ buffer = <; } 
; } 
} 


 

//hr = ADsGetObject((LPWSTR) pszFilter, IID_IADs, (void**)&pADsGUID); 
", IID_IADs, (void**)&pADsGUID); 


 
 
get_Name(&bstr)) { 


if( S_OK == pADsGUID->get_ADsPath(&bstr)) { 


 
 


Release(); 

 
 
CoUninitialize(); 
 
 
 
 
I first get my GUID with
<pre class="prettyprint hr=ADsGetObject(L"WinNT://mydomain/me", IID_IADs, (void**) &pADs); [/code]
and afterwards send the GUID to the LDPA server to get the users info.
This , however, does not work and I can not connect to the LDPA server with the GUID. So my questions are
1- Am I doing something wrong?
2- How should I use the GUID to get users info, need the user group.
3- and can anyone show me a better way to add the GUID to the LDPA string, this is how Im doing it now
<pre class="prettyprint //MUST FIND A BETTER WAY
char pszFilter[100] = "LDAP://mydomain/";
sprintf(buffer,"%S",bstr);
printf("buffer %sn",buffer);
unsigned int i = 0;
for(i = 0; i < strlen(buffer); ++i){
if (buffer == {){ buffer = <; }
if (buffer == }){ buffer = >; }
}[/code]

Thanks,
Ehsan
