Active Directory Users and Groups

Postby mandygrewal » Tue May 02, 2006 12:08 pm

Is there any way I can authenticate a user entered through a dialog against active directory? I have a screen where the user types in the domain, username and password for an active directory account which I would like to verify. They also enter an active directory group which I would like to verify that exists. I prevoiusly had this bit code in my .NET installer class and have no idea to replicate this in InstallAware, any help much appreciated!

Cheers!

Why not try posting your code in the plug-ins forum? InstallAware or a third party might turn it into a full-fledged plug-in for you.
