AD属性是System.Byte [] - 编码转换为字符串？

Question

I am reading the displayName property from ActiveDirectory.

On Windows Server 2008, result.Properties["displayName"][0].ToString() is the displayName, while on Windows Server 2012, it returns System.Byte[] . Now I have to convert the value using sth like var buffer = result.Properties["displayName"][0]; Encoding.%SomeEncoding%.GetString(buffer, 0, buffer.Length); var buffer = result.Properties["displayName"][0]; Encoding.%SomeEncoding%.GetString(buffer, 0, buffer.Length); ,
but I don't know which Encoding Microsoft chose - UTF, ISO, Default, Local?

By the way, is there a "cheat sheet" on AD properties and their types available?

Answer 1

Active Directory实现LDAP v3并使用UTF-8 。

Answer 2

你可以从AD读取一个字节值，如下所示：

Encoding.UTF8.GetString((byte[])userRow.Properties["mailNickname"][0]);
