Re: C# - need to query based on objectGUID ?

Ok, thanks. So how do I use this format when using the .Net framework
classes such as DirectoryEntry and/or DirectorySearcher, as mentioned in
this example article
http://www.willasrari.com/blog/query-active-directory-users-using-c/000133.aspx

Also, for example, could I use the static metod DirectoryEntry.Exists( ) ?

Use the GUID as the base of the query like this (also note that the
example line below describing the 'base' of the query uses angled brackets
but is not intended to signify something you should replace; it is
entirely literal with the obvious exception of the value for the GUID
itself) -

base: <GUID=EC6EEA8C-6011-43C5-9FF7-FF3D3A0A21C9>
filter: something suitable that won't exclude the desired result set -
your choice
scope: same rational as a regular query - your choice

Hope that makes sense.

How can I search AD if im given a objectGUID string ? Im first doing a
search using DirectorySearcher with a "SAMAccountname=" value, which
returns correctly. Then I get the directory entry and the objectguid. I
need to pass this value to another part of my application, and then
verify its existence in AD by querying the directory with it as a search
filter. What is the filter I use to do this with ?
