Please keep replies on-list. In that kind of situation, I would recommend downloading the symas kit, trying ldapmodify.c until it compiles in VC++ (I would imagine this is possible, since it's just a client, but I'm definitely not the person to give you advice on it), or just using any number of the existing windows tools that do exactly the same thing + gui views. (see also perl versions of similar tools, java versions of similar tools, etc)

Hi Matthew,

Thank you very much for your inputs. But Our requirement does not allow me to use CYGWIN dependency.Is there no way to build the client tools using VC++. Could you please give me some inputs on this.

You might want to look here: (check the right-rail news section) http://www.symas.com/cds.shtml

If you need to build it yourself, I would probably look into MinGW or

cygwin.

I'm not sure if this email is still valid:

but it's also worth looking into if you go that route.
