Active Directory® Service Interfaces (ADSI) define and use the following enumerations.

Enumeration Description
ADS_ACEFLAG_ENUM Specifies how security propagates for inherited access-control entries (ACEs) and types of auditing for a system ACE.
ADS_ACETYPE_ENUM Specifies the type of ACE.
ADS_AUTHENTICATION_ENUM Specifies the security levels used in authenticating a client.
ADS_CHASE_REFERRALS_ENUM Specifies the behavior of referral chasing.

ADS_GROUP_TYPE_ENUM Specifies the group type of the member.
ADS_NAME_INITTYPE_ENUM Specifies the type of initialization to be performed on a name translate object.
ADS_NAME_TYPE_ENUM Specifies the format used to represent distinguished names.
ADS_OPTION_ENUM Specifies the available options that the IADsObjectOptions interface uses for manipulating directory objects.
ADS_PASSWORD_ENCODING_ENUM Used to identify the type of password encoding used with the ADS_OPTION_PASSWORD_METHOD option in the IADsObjectOptions::GetOption and IADsObjectOptions::SetOption methods
ADS_PATHTYPE_ENUM Specifies the type of object on which the security descriptor will be modified.

Remarks

Because VBScript cannot read information from a type library, VBScript applications do not understand the symbolic constants as defined in these enumerations. You should use the numerical constants instead to set the appropriate flags in your VBScript applications. If you want to use the symbolic constants as a good programming practice, you should make explicit declarations of such constants, as done here, in your VBScript applications.
