Hi,

I am writing some vb software which will communicate with their active directory. Because I am writing this at home, can I get LDAP from somewhere to install on my WinXP Pro machine so that I can test my code without having to by Server 2003?

Thanks in advance,
 
A quick Google search for "ldap" turned up this:
http://www.openldap.org/
I've never tried it so I can't speak for it.

To use MS's LDAP you'll need WinNT, Win2000 Server (any version but Pro) or Win2003 to get an active directory installed. If this is for work, you should be able to code against your DC. If this is for home/practice, you might try the above link or something similar. You *might* be able to use MS's LDAP components to communicate with their LDAP server, but I haven't tried it.
