Here is what I have done so far.

The User-ID "srk" is created on Windows 2003 server running Active Directory. I wrote a Java Program and was able to authenticate user-id "srk" against AD and get all the attributes for that user.

Next I created a ADAM Instance "MyInstance", created a user "srk", reset the password "Boston123". When I attempt to bind from ldp with function type as SIMPLE and method as SIMPLE and key in the password the Bind fails

res = ldap_simple_bind_s(ld, 'xschalla', <unavailable>); // v.3
Error <49>: ldap_simple_bind_s() failed: Invalid Credentials
Server error: <empty>

The way I want to use AD and ADAM is use AD for authentication and once successfully authenticated for Authorization info refer to ADAM - but the question is what is the common key between AD and ADAM and how would I access ADAM with LDAP.

Thanks a bunch
