  Return ALL from Global Address List

  Aug 02, 2011 07:51 PM|LINK

  I need to know how to get everyone in the Global Address List (GAL), not just those in our domain.   We have many external users added.  Here is my code..

  DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher();

  String name = txtLastName.Text;

  search.Filter = "(& (&(mailnickname=*)(showInAddressBook=CN=Default Global Address List,CN=All Global Address Lists,"
  + "CN=Address Lists Container,CN=Company Name,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=corp,DC=root))"
  + "(|(cn=*" + name + "*)"
  + "(|(givenName=*"+ name + "*)"
  + "(sn=*" + name + "*)"
  + "(|(sAMAccountName=*" + name + "*)))))";

  search.SearchScope = System.DirectoryServices.SearchScope.Subtree;
  search.Sort.Direction = System.DirectoryServices.SortDirection.Ascending;

  search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn");

  search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("SAMAccountName");

  search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("mail");

  foreach (SearchResult sr in results)

  {

  for (Int32 i = 0; i < sr.Properties["mail"].Count; i++)

  {

  Email = sr.Properties["mail"][i].ToString();

  if (Email == txtEmailAddress.Text)

  AccountName = sr.Properties["SAMAccountName"].ToString();

  }

  }

  Please help!!!

  You just need to connect to the global ldap server and run the search from there. You sysadmin should be able to tell you what the address is.
