Hi, (First of all, I’m slow when it comes to mswindows stuff, so pls be gentle 🙂 1 Is there a plan to incorporate LDAP into ruby’s std lib? LDAP seems so ubiquitous nowadays… 2 Is it possible to access windows active directory using win32ole? (i cannot use/require ruby-ldap since it needs compiling on my windows box.) If yes, anyone care to share? I just need to query the lastLogon/Logoff values of users for each windows active dir domain controller. Thank you for the help. Kind regards, -botp
