querying LDAP - get account status (like disabled , active, etc.)

Question

I am querying a LDAP and setting variables for mail and displayName. I also need to get account is disable or active. Which property should I need to pull for this?

Answer 1

If using Active Directory the attribute you are interested in is userAccountControl which is a bit mask. Here are the possible values... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305144/

There is no standard attribute though and it will vary by product and sometimes applications that use the directory server as a repository.
