Seaching Active Directory via ADO

[Roger Upole]

Here's a short example that uses ADO to search for a
user by wildcard.

import win32com.client
c = win32com.client.Dispatch("ADODB.Connection")
c.Open("Provider=ADSDSOObject")

rs,rc=c.Execute("""
SELECT adspath, title, name
>From 'LDAP://DC=yourdomain, DC=COM'
where objectClass='user' and name='Roger*'
""")

while not rs.EOF:
    for f in rs.Fields:
        print f.Name, f.Value
    rs.MoveNext()
