LDAP path - where to find

Question

I am trying to search for some GPO object using DirectoryServices. The first step is to bind to LDAP. I have an active directory lab environment where I created a virtual machine as a Domain Controller. In order to bind to this LDAP, I obviously need to determine the path to use in DirectoryEntry class. How can I find that path to use, is it somewhere within properties of AD domain services?

Found this GPMC Class library, may try this instead of DirectoryServices?

Seems you can get the GPO using samples here:

I never use that before. So try on your own risk :)
