Active Directory Question
-
I'm attempting to retrieve an Active Directory attribute that is stored as as type OctetString. I want to convert this value to a string, but the Convert class doesn't seem to be able to do this. Can someone help?

structcontaining a byte array. To convert this you might want to look into theBitConverter.ToString(..)method as it may handle this. You may also need to refer to theMarshalclass underSystem.Runtime.InteropServices. Hope this helps. :) Nick Parker
