Good introduction to ADAM

Windows Active Directory is a complex thing, and making sure it works properly is even more so.

Luckily, for us software developers, Microsoft has developed ADAM, short for Active Directory Application Mode.

ADAM could be called a light-weight version of the full-blown Active Directory, and ADAM can be installed for example in a Windows XP workstation.

To get started with ADAM, take a look at the Scripting Guys' recent article on MSDN. It's good reading.
