Don't know much, you can connect over LDAP (http://ch.php.net/manual/en/ref.ldap.php#17098), there is also the COM interface (www.php.net/com) and w32api (http://cvs.php.net/co.php/php4/ext/w32api/w32api.c?login=2&r=1.8) >I am also interested what is the better(more stable, efficient) solution to >run PHP for WIN2000: >1.
