Hello,
I have been searching for information about the User attributes for
jpegphoto and photo. Is it possible to store a users photo in these
fields? I am assuming that is why they are there... If it is possible,
how can it be accomplished? I am a vbscript/asp programmer, and the
data type of "Octet String" is not one that I am familiar with.

Any suggestions? I have googled and searched msdn and come up with nothing.

Thanks,
Michael
 
Yes you can store photos. Using vbscript is extremely difficult if possible at
all. It doesn't handle binary data well. You should search google with keywords
of vbscript octetstring and I would add Mueller as there is an MVP named Richard
Mueller who plays with Octet Strings and was at one point working out how to
write them with vbscript.
