Error 0x80005000 and DirectoryServices

Question

I\'m trying to run a simple LDAP query using directory services in .Net.

    DirectoryEntry directoryEntry = new DirectoryEntry(\"LDAP://someserver.contoso.c         


        

Answer 1

I had the same again and again and nothing seemed to help.

Changing the path from ldap:// to LDAP:// did the trick.
