Author How to obtain the LDAP URL for an Active Directory node?

Hi,

I need to access Active directory, including Exchange specific records)
programatically, but I'm new to LDAP URL syntax. It's difficult to me to map
the tree I view using "Active Directory Users and Computers" snap-in, and
the "Exchange System Manager", to a LDAP URL to access any of the nodes. My
questions are:
-How I can discover for any node displayed by these GUI utilities, to LDAP
URL?
-Can anybody point me to good resources about this?

Thanks in advance
Faustino

Any Exchange configuration information will be found in the
Configuration container (cn=Configuration, dc=<root-domain> ).

Users and groups will be found in the OU's where you see them
(CN=<name>,OU=<org-unit>,dc=<domain> ),

Learn to use either LDP.EXE or ADSIEDIT.EXE to explore the AD. Try
this book "Micorosft Windows 2000 Active Directory Programming" ISBN
0-7356-1037-1.
