While I am familiar with SQL, I am having trouble retrieving data from Active Directories. I have followed all the instructions to create a linked server, I have set the security per the documentation. I have coded the openquery statement per
the examples but I keep receiving the same error message.
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY
(ADSI
, 'SELECT displayName, userPrincipalName
FROM ''LDAP://buf-dc-002/DC=mig,DC=local''
WHERE objectClass = ''Person''')
Msg 7321, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
An error occurred while preparing the query "SELECT displayName, userPrincipalName
FROM 'LDAP://buf-dc-002/DC=mig,DC=local'
WHERE objectClass = 'Person'" for execution against OLE DB provider "ADsDSOObject" for linked server "ADSI".
I cannot seem to find any information on why I am receiving this message. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
