I am creating a new AD user on the domain server using the following code snippet:
DirectoryEntry newUser = directoryEntry.Children.Add("CN=" + model.Account.FullName, "user");
if (model.Account.SamAccountName != null) newUser.Properties["sAMAccountName"].Value = model.Account.SamAccountName;
newUser.CommitChanges();
setUserPassword("CN=" + model.Account.FullName + "," + model.Account.Path, model.Account.Password);
newUser.RefreshCache();
if (model.Account.FirstName != null) newUser.Properties["givenName"].Add(model.Account.FirstName);
if (model.Account.LastName != null) newUser.Properties["sn"].Add(model.Account.LastName);
if (model.Account.MiddleName != null) newUser.Properties["initials"].Add(model.Account.MiddleName);
if (model.Account.UPNLogon != null && model.Account.DomainName != null) newUser.Properties["userPrincipalName"].Add(model.Account.UPNLogon + "@" + model.Account.DomainName);
if (model.Organization.DisplayName != null) newUser.Properties["displayName"].Add(model.Organization.DisplayName);
if (model.Organization.Email != null) newUser.Properties["mail"].Add(model.Organization.Email);
newUser.Properties["LockOutTime"].Value = 0; //unlock account
newUser.Properties["userAccountControl"].Value = 0x200; // enable account
newUser.CommitChanges();
string homeMDB = profile.Exchange13_Profile.ExchangeDB;
IMailboxStore mailbox;
try
{
IMailboxStore mailbox = (IMailboxStore)NewUser;
mailbox.CreateMailbox(sHomeMDB);
NewUser.CommitChanges();
}
catch (InvalidCastException e)
{
MessageBox.Show(e.Message.ToString());
}
The above code successfully creates a new user and enables it on the AD server. But I am unable to create/enable the Exchange mailbox, as the IMailboxStore
namespace needs cdoexm.dll
. I've tried to locate cdoexm.dll
on the Domain Controller, MailBox Server, and Client Access Server, but in vein.
I know the alternate way of doing this, is by using Powershell cmdlets, but I don't want to do that.
Now precisely stating my questions:
cdoexm.dll
? Or IMailBoxStore
? Or The first two questions are resolved as CDOEXM is now obsolete from Exchange 2010 and onward.
To enable a mailbox for an existing AD user, use the enable-mailuser
powershell command.
To enable the Lync account, use the enable-csuser
powershell command.
CDOEXM is removed starting from Exchange 2007. And this is not an assembly, it's COM.
Did some searching, I can only find solution using PowerShell,
or use c# to call PowerShell.
To use C# to call PowerShell:
Add "usings":
using System.Management.Automation;
using System.Management.Automation.Remoting;
using System.Management.Automation.Runspaces;
Calling the cmdlet:
PSCredential newCred = (PSCredential)null;
WSManConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new WSManConnectionInfo(new Uri("http://exchangeserver01.my.domain/powershell?serializationLevel=Full"),
"http://schemas.microsoft.com/powershell/Microsoft.Exchange", newCred);
connectionInfo.AuthenticationMechanism = AuthenticationMechanism.Kerberos;
Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace(connectionInfo);
PowerShell powershell = PowerShell.Create();
PSCommand command = new PSCommand();
command.AddCommand("Enable-Mailbox");
command.AddParameter("Identity", user.Guid.ToString());
command.AddParameter("Alias", user.UserName);
command.AddParameter("DomainController", ConnectingServer);
powershell.Commands = command;
try
{
runspace.Open();
powershell.Runspace = runspace;
Collection<psobject> results = powershell.Invoke();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
string er = ex.InnerException.ToString();
}
finally
{
runspace.Dispose();
runspace = null;
powershell.Dispose();
powershell = null;
}

But as you want solution other than PowerShell, may be the above is not useful...
