    Thanks Joe,

      I have another question. I am now able to get the OU list. Now I need to
    get the users in that specific OU. For that purpose I created a new
    DirectoryEntry obj and pased the path, as well as username and pw to it.
    After that I am setting the path again for that specific OU.

    Dim entry As DirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://DOMAIN",
    "Username", "pw")
    entry.Path = "LDAP://OU=stores,DC=DOMAIN,DC=local"

    now, this code works locally, but does not work on the server. The username
    and pw is hardcoded for the moment. The user is domain admin. Later, I will
    would like to use the logged in user and pw. Can you please help me why this
    is not working on the server?

    Thanks
