Creating new active directory account from an asp.net webpage

Question

I'm 14 and I am really stuck. I wish to have an ASP.NET webpage that will enable users to create a new account in an organizational container. I have seen many pages on this but I just keep getting stuck.

Also, if this is possible, once the user has signed up would it be possible to run a script to enable the user for Office Communications Server 2007, or will I have to set the script as a cron job every 2 minutes?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, but I just get stuck with everything. Sorry its a bit vauge — Samuel

I'd be tempted to suggest sharing some code as otherwise this will stay vague which may not help you as it could well be similar to those pages you've seen. — JB King

I don't have the code anymore but it was just a load of connection strings and I kept getting a parser error saying that it could not connect securely to my server? — Samuel

Here is how I do it in a classic asp page:

Set objContainer = GetObject("LDAP://OU=OUtoPut,DC=YOUR,DC=ORG")
Set objUser = objContainer.Create("User", "CN=" & strCN)

objUser.sAMAccountName = strCN
objUser.givenName = strFName
objUser.sn = strLName
objUser.FullName = strCN
objUser.displayName = strCN
objUser.UserPrincipalName = strCN & "@your.org"
objUser.SetInfo
objUser.SetPassword strPass
objUser.pwdLastSet = 0
objUser.SetInfo
objUser.AccountDisabled = False
objUser.SetInfo

probably a little overdone toward the end with the setinfos, but it works.
