Regardless of your previous experience in scripting or programming with ADSI (including none), this title provides the information you need in a relatively compact manner that brings you up to speed and gets you working productively before you even finish.The book starts off with a quick introduction to ADSI and the .NET framework: light on history, heavy on solidifying the readers understanding of how the .NET framework's Directory Services got where it is. The middle of the book concentrates on explaining the core set of objects needed to bind, read, write, search, etc., spending the right amount of time on each topic with clear language and to-the-point examples. You could actually put the book down at that point with a clear understanding and the ability to perform the needed tasks. The last section of the book takes your skills even further, starting with showing you how to extend the schema, work with security, and manage namespaces. With those sections complete comes complete walk-thrus on practical applications you can develop as well as sections on hints, tips and troubleshooting. Some potential VB readers may be put off by the fact that all the code examples are in C#. As the examples are typically short and dealing with objects, non C# developers shouldn't have any issue translating the code; if all else fails, the author has posted complete VB translations for download.This title proves itself to be not only an efficient learning resource, but also serves as a reference for Directory Services that you will use again and again. The authors have created a book that truly aims at demystifying the process and demonstrating to the reader that the technology is not as convoluted as other ADSI books make it out to be. Even though at the time of this review there are few books dedicated to .NET Directory Services available, this is a must have and will continue to prove its value for quite some time. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Needed this book for work. *by M***G on Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2013* A few years ago I wrote an application at work that would import information from our payroll system into active directory on a nightly basis. The application was run on a scheduled task and in place for nearly 3 years before I had to touch it again. A few months ago I looked for a book about programing for directory services and was surprised that not much had been published over the last few years. This is a good book and taught me a couple different ways to handle the updates into AD. All in all, it paid for itself and provided me some efficiency that I didn’t have before. I would recommend this book to others. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Ok book - Some good information - BUT *by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2008* This book is pretty good and it has some good examples.The problem is that the author is all over the place in this book and does not use any of the examples in any way that would be helpful!The author's writing style leaves much to be desired. I don't know why so many people have given it such high ratings?I know that this is a tough topic but come on I think if you know a subject you can do better than this. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.dk/products/14535585-the-net-developers-guide-to-directory-services-programming-1st-edition](https://www.desertcart.dk/products/14535585-the-net-developers-guide-to-directory-services-programming-1st-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Denmark* *Store origin: DK* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
