This VI uses a .NET 2.0 DLL (DirectoryTools) to search Microsoft Active Directory. The DirectoryTools DLL uses the System.DirectoryServices namespace. The DLL exposes some simple functionality to LabVIEW in a form more user friendly to LabVIEW than direct calls to the System.Directory classes.

Important Note: This implementation will only retrieve the first property of any record that matches the PropertiesToLoad - additional instances of an identically named property in a record are not returned

Using this VI - this VI was designed to return all the computers on a given MS Windows network. The default filter (objectClass=computer) along with the default PropertiesToLoad of "cn" (common name) will return the name of all computers registered on the network. Any valid filter string and property may be used.
