I have modified my MOSS 2007 configuration to query a given target AD successfully. I would like to show some custom LDAP fields (such as country) in the PeopleEditor control and allow users to search against these fields. Can someone point me towards useful resources/tutorials showing how to do this?
Thanks, MagicAndi.
You need to inherit from the EntityEditor control (just as PeopleEditor does) and write your own queries and validation.
Some background (read community content):
Along with these links and carefully studying the PeopleEditor control with Reflector, another good resource is this blog post from Igor Kozlov. There’s a less detailed but still useful example on MSDN here.
I’m working on a CodePlex project that queries any given Active Directory from a people picker. It’s well documented and combines techniques from the various references out on the web (giving credit of course). Hope it helps someone as well!
