How to get structure of Active Directory through LDAP

[Ronen Diment]

Hi!

I'm trying to connect to an active directory through LDAP , on java client.

I dont know the structure of the active directory so I dont know what
parameters I Should pass to getAttributes().

Do you know how to get the strcuture(List of all the elements) of the Active
Directory?

The code:

Hashtable env = new Hashtable(11);

env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");

env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://ldap.public.com:389");

try { // Create the initial directory context

DirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);

// Dont know the structure - What parameters to supply??

Attributes attrs = ctx.getAttributes("DC=myOrg,DC=int");

Thanks,

Ron

Get an LDAP browser (e.g. http://www.iit.edu/~gawojar/ldap/ ) and use
it to inspect your AD; afaik, the one linked above provides reasonable
defaults to connect.
