Examples
The following example code connects to the LDAP domain "fabrikam.com" with the username (administrator) and password (SecretPwd123) initialized in the PrincipalContext constructor.
A search is performed to find the user with name "John Smith" under the container specified in the PrincipalContext constructor: "CN=Users,DC=fabrikam,DC=com." If the user is found, a check is performed to determine whether this user's account has been locked out. If the account has been locked out, the code example unlocks the account.
PrincipalContext ctx = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain,
"fabrikam.com",
"CN=Users,DC=fabrikam,DC=com",
"administrator",
"SecretPwd123");
UserPrincipal usr = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(ctx, "John Smith");
if (usr != null)
{
if (usr.IsAccountLockedOut())
usr.UnlockAccount();
usr.Dispose();
}
ctx.Dispose();
