LDAP query in .NET 2003

[MDS]

Hey,
First of all Best Wishes for 2004

I'm a system admin and I want to write a framework for our Helpdesk to do
some daily stuff like creating mailboxes (not user related), (des)enabling
SIP, putting users in groups, you all know the stuff.

I'm quite new to .NET2003 and I found a tool ADSE.MSI on the MS webstit,
only this is for .NET2000 so I'm unable to install...

My question is how can I query my AD (LDAP) from whitin .NET2003. I used to
do this with vbs....

Any lead would be GREAT

If you are looking for a fully managed .NET LDAP component, take a look at
IP*Works! .NET Edition - http://www.nsoftware.com. The LDAP component will work
fine with AD.
