This sample uses the LDAP: provider and is suitable for Windows 2000 and later networks running Active Directory. Sample Files ============ * makefile * Rename.cpp * Rename.sln * Rename.vcproj * StdAfx.Cpp * StdAfx.h Building the Sample =================== When you build this sample using Visual Studio, be sure that you have the INCLUDE directory for the Platform SDK set first in the Options list of include files. You must run this sample in a Windows domain where you have permission to write to Active Directory To build this sample 1. Open the solution Rename.sln. 2. Open the source file Rename.Cpp. 3. Replace the domain name with an existing one, such as "DC=Fabrikam, DC=Com" in the following line. hr = ADsGetObject(L"LDAP://CN=Users,DC=Microsoft,DC=COM", \ IID_IADsContainer, (void**) &pCont); 4. Create a user named "Jeff Smith" in the domain and change the domain name to the one specified in Step 3 in the following line. hr = pCont->MoveHere(L"LDAP://CN=Jeff Smith,CN=Users, \ DC=Microsoft,DC=COM",L"CN=Jeffrey Smith", &pDisp ); 5. From the Build menu, select Build. You can also build this sample at a command prompt using the supplied makefile. Running the Sample ================== To run this sample 1. Open a command prompt and change to the directory where you built the sample. 2. Type the command "Rename.exe". You can also run the sample by selecting Execute Rename.exe from the Build menu. Example Output ============== If the sample executes successfully, there is no output. You can verify the result by opening and examining the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in of the Microsoft Management Console. How the Sample Works ==================== The sample uses the LDAP: ADsPath to perform the bindings and the IADsContainer interface to perform the rename.
