Using Active Directory with java

vorbis

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with using ADS through java. I can connect to the server with a LDAP connection. The fact that I can connect effectively means that I am authenticated. However I'm stumped as regards authorisation. What exactly am I supposed to look up to determine if the user is in a group? The code I'm trying so far is below. Any help is greatly appreciated.

DirContext ctx = null;

try {

ctx = new InitialDirContext(env); // env is correctly set up

System.out.println("bind Successful...");

// what next ?????

ctx.close();

} catch (AuthenticationException aex) {

// Authentication exception indicates that the request contained and invalid password

System.out.println("Login failed...Invalid Password.");

} catch (javax.naming.NamingException nex) {

// Naming exception indicates that the request contained an invalid Corporate ID

nex.printStackTrace();

System.out.println("Login failed...Invalid Corporate ID.");

}
