Solution: Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider “ADSDSOObject”

You must have Adsldp.dll, Adsldpc.dll, Adsmsext.dll, and Activeds.dll installed on your client computer to work with the provider…

Step 1: Create a linked server to your Active Directory

sp_addlinkedserver ‘ADSI’, ‘Active Directory Service Interfaces’, ‘ADSDSOObject’, ‘adsdatasource’

Step 2: Create a view in SQL server using OPENQUERY to select from Active Directory

CREATE VIEW dbo.vw_AD_USER_INFO

AS

SELECT *

FROM OPENQUERY(ADSI,

‘SELECT sAMAccountName, givenName, sn,displayName, mail, telephoneNumber

FROM

”LDAP://dc=domain,dc=domain,dc=org”

WHERE objectClass = ”user” and objectCategory=”person”’)

GO
