Is it possible to check the LDAP version in Windows Server 2003 without running a powershell script?

Thanks, Toast

Do you mean what version of LDAP your Active Directory installation is using? – squillman Aug 6 '10 at 17:45
Absolutely, forgive me :) – ToastMan Aug 6 '10 at 17:53

the following vbscript will work : 

Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")

For Each strVersion In objRootDSE.Get("SupportedLDAPVersion")
  Wscript.Echo "LDAP Version: " & strVersion 
Next

returns :

LDAP Version: 3

LDAP Version: 2

Many thanks for your excellent help, just a little note: The 'Next' at the very end belongs to a new line, otherwise the script returns a punch to the kidney. Toast. – ToastMan Aug 9 '10 at 19:01

Unless I'm very much mistaken, AD's LDAP supports the LDAPv3 protocol uniformly.

I believe that is a well known fact. – ToastMan Aug 6 '10 at 17:53
