A simple example of using the DirectoryServices namespace in .NET

Introduction

This "how to" is only one more sample of how to use the DirectoryServices namespace in the Microsoft.Net framework. This sample uses IIS as its Active Directory provider. The access to Active Directory in .Net is so easy. You use System.DirectoryServices.dll for simple access.

I implemented a simple class called IISManager, it has two methods: Connect and CreateVirtualDirectory.

// To use it...

            
// Default constructor initialize the servername to localhost

// you could use IISManager(servername) 

IISManager isMang = new IISManager();
isMang.Connect();
try
{
	isMang.CreateVirtualDirectory(txtName.Text,txtPath.Text);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
	MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
