Function Find-LdapObject {
    <#
.SYNOPSIS
    Searches LDAP server in given search root and using given search filter
 
.DESCRIPTION
    Searches LDAP server identified by LDAP connection passed as parameter.
    Attributes of returned objects are retrieved via ranged attribute retrieval by default. This allows to retrieve all attributes, including computed ones, but has impact on performace as each attribute generated own LDAP server query. Tu turn ranged attribute retrieval off, set parameter RangeSize to zero.
    Optionally, attribute values can be transformed to complex types using transform registered for an attribute with 'Load' action.
 
.OUTPUTS
    Search results as PSCustomObjects with requested properties as strings, byte streams or complex types produced by transforms
 
.EXAMPLE
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection [string]::Empty -SearchFilter:"(&(sn=smith)(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"cn=Users,dc=myDomain,dc=com"
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to domain controller of caller's domain on port 389 and performs the search
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -SearchFilter:'(&(cn=jsmith)(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))' -SearchBase:'ou=Users,dc=myDomain,dc=com' -PropertiesToLoad:@('sAMAccountName','objectSid') -BinaryProps:@('objectSid')
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to to domain controller of caller's domain and performs the search, returning value of objectSid attribute as byte stream
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer:mydc.mydomain.com -EncryptionType:SSL
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(sn=smith)(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"ou=Users,dc=myDomain,dc=com"
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to given LDAP server and performs the search via SSL
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer "mydc.mydomain.com"
 
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection:$Ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(sn=smith)(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"cn=Users,dc=myDomain,dc=com"
 
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection:$Ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(cn=myComputer)(objectClass=computer)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"ou=Computers,dc=myDomain,dc=com" -PropertiesToLoad:@("cn","managedBy")
 
Description
-----------
This command creates the LDAP connection object and passes it as parameter. Connection remains open and ready for reuse in subsequent searches
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer "mydc.mydomain.com"
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection:$Ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(cn=SEC_*)(objectClass=group)(objectCategory=group))" -SearchBase:"cn=Groups,dc=myDomain,dc=com" | `
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection:$Ldap -ASQ:"member" -SearchScope:"Base" -SearchFilter:"(&(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -propertiesToLoad:@("sAMAccountName","givenName","sn") | `
Select-Object * -Unique
 
Description
-----------
This one-liner lists sAMAccountName, first and last name, and DN of all users who are members of at least one group whose name starts with "SEC_" string
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -Credential (Get-Credential)
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(cn=myComputer)(objectClass=computer)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"ou=Computers,dc=myDomain,dc=com" -PropertiesToLoad:@("cn","managedBy") -RangeSize 0
 
Description
-----------
This command creates explicit credential and uses it to authenticate LDAP query.
Then command retrieves data without ranged attribute value retrieval.
 
.EXAMPLE
$Users = Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection (Get-LdapConnection) -SearchFilter:"(&(sn=smith)(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"cn=Users,dc=myDomain,dc=com" -AdditionalProperties:@("Result")
foreach($user in $Users)
{
    try
    {
        #do some processing
        $user.Result="OK"
    }
    catch
    {
        #report processing error
        $user.Result=$_.Exception.Message
    }
}
#report users with results of processing for each of them
$Users
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to domain controller of caller's domain on port 389 and performs the search.
For each user found, it also defines 'Result' property on returned object. Property is later used to store result of processing on user account
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer:ldap.mycorp.com -AuthType:Anonymous
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(sn=smith)(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"ou=People,ou=mycorp,o=world"
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to given LDAP server and performs the search anonymously.
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer:ldap.mycorp.com
$dse = Get-RootDSE -LdapConnection $conn
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=organizationalPerson))" -SearchBase:"ou=People,ou=mycorp,o=world" -PropertiesToLoad *
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to given LDAP server and performs the direct search, retrieving all properties with value from objects found by search
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer:ldap.mycorp.com
$dse = Get-RootDSE -LdapConnection $conn
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $ldap -SearchFilter:"(&(objectClass=group)(objectCategory=group)(cn=MyVeryLargeGroup))" -SearchBase:"ou=People,ou=mycorp,o=world" -PropertiesToLoad member -RageSize 1000
 
Description
-----------
This command connects to given LDAP server and lists all members of the group, using ranged retrieval ("paging support on LDAP attributes")

    All properties of object are ignored and no transforms are performed.
    Only distinguishedName property is used to locate the object.
 
.OUTPUTS
    Nothing
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer "mydc.mydomain.com" -EncryptionType Kerberos
Rename-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -Object "cn=User1,cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com" -NewName 'cn=User2'
 
Decription
----------
This command changes CN of User1 object to User2. Notice that 'cn=' is part of new name. This is required by protocol, when you do not provide it, you will receive NamingViolation error.
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection
Rename-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -Object "cn=User1,cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com" -NewName "cn=User1" -NewParent "ou=CompanyUsers,dc=mydomain,dc=com"
 
Description
-----------
This command Moves the User1 object to different OU. Notice the newName parameter - it's the same as old name as we do not rename the object a new name is required parameter for protocol.

Function Register-LdapAttributeTransform
{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
    Registers attribute transform logic
 
.DESCRIPTION
    Registered attribute transforms are used by various cmdlets to convert value to/from format used by LDAP server to/from more convenient format
    Sample transforms can be found in GitHub repository
 
.OUTPUTS
    Nothing
 
.EXAMPLE
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer "mydc.mydomain.com" -EncryptionType Kerberos

Decription
----------
This example registers transform that converts raw byte array in ntSecurityDescriptor property into instance of System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectorySecurity
After command completes, returned object(s) will have instance of System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectorySecurity in ntSecurityDescriptor property

Function Unregister-LdapAttributeTransform
{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
 
    Unregisters previously registered attribute transform logic
 
.DESCRIPTION
 
    Unregisters attribute transform. Attribute transforms transform attributes from simple types provided by LDAP server to more complex types. Transforms work on attribute level and do not have acces to values of other attributes.
    Transforms must be constructed using specific logic, see existing transforms and template on GitHub
 
.EXAMPLE
 
$Ldap = Get-LdapConnection -LdapServer "mydc.mydomain.com" -EncryptionType Kerberos
#get list of available transforms
Get-LdapAttributeTransform -ListAvailable
#register necessary transforms
Register-LdapAttributeTransform -Name Guid -AttributeName objectGuid
#Now objectGuid property on returned object is Guid rather than raw byte array
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -SearchBase "cn=User1,cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com" -SearchScope Base -PropertiesToLoad 'cn',objectGuid
 
#we no longer need the transform, let's unregister
Unregister-LdapAttributeTransform -AttributeName objectGuid
Find-LdapObject -LdapConnection $Ldap -SearchBase "cn=User1,cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com" -SearchScope Base -PropertiesToLoad 'cn',objectGuid -BinaryProperties 'objectGuid'
#now objectGuid property of returned object contains raw byte array
 
Description
----------
This example registers transform that converts raw byte array in objectGuid property into instance of System.Guid
After command completes, returned object(s) will have instance of System.Guid in objectGuid property
Then the transform is unregistered, so subsequent calls do not use it
