I'm trying to create a user with textboxes that have to be filled in. The properties, username and password are correct yet I get a "There is no such object on the server" error.
private void btn_AddStudent_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
// Username and password.
string UserName = UsernameGenerate(8);
string Password = PasswordGenerate(8);
// OU path.
string ouString = "OU = " + cmb_Study.Text;
string LDAPstring = "LDAP://" + "OU = Studies, " + ouString + ", DC=DR, DC=GUI";
DirectoryEntry dirEntry = new DirectoryEntry(LDAPstring);
// Create user.
string userString = "CN = " + UserName;
DirectoryEntry newUser = dirEntry.Children.Add(userString, "user");
newUser.CommitChanges();
newUser.Properties["userprincipalname"].Add(UserName + "@DR.GUI");
newUser.Properties["samaccountname"].Value = UserName;
newUser.Invoke("setPassword", new object[] {Password});
//Rest of the properties
newUser.Close();
dirEntry.Close();
newUser.Dispose();
dirEntry.Dispose();
MessageBox.Show("User has been succesfully added");
}
catch (Exception E)
{
MessageBox.Show("Creating user has failed. " + E.Message);
}
}
I have been trying to search for a solution for quite a while now but I'm still clueless where the problem is. Did I make a mistake in the OU path? Which for example would be OU= Studies/ISM or Studies/WEBDEV. Or did I make any mistakes in my LDAP?
I'm fairly new to C# and programming in overal, I'm looking for a simple solution if possible.
