I got exception error when searching AD user

Dear Zinnia jones

 

According to the error message you applied regarding Active Directory, while having a look at MSDN library System Error Codes (8200 – 8900) page, I found that error 8235 that you are having is referral related: ERROR_DS_REFERRAL 8235 (0x202B) A referral was returned from the server.

 

A referral is returned by AD server when it knows that another server have the information requested that it doesn't have. I think that you need to enable Referral Chasing on the Directory Search erso the client will query the server named in the referral. Here is an example of how to enable referral chasing:

 

Searcher.ReferallChasing = ReferallChasingOption.All;

 

Hope this may help you.

 

Best of luck.
