Secure LDAP object manipulation with VBscript using alternate credentials

I'm aware of using ADsDSOobject with explicit credentials 开发者_如何学编程to connect to an AD object to read attributes, list members, etc. And the GetObject("LDAP//...") method for manipulating those objects (adding group members, changing properties, etc.), but is there a way to manipulate attributes and memberships with explicit credentials?

The first method I'm referring to is something like...

Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set cmd = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
conn.Provider = "ADsDSOobject"
conn.Properties("User ID") = AD_Username
conn.Properties("Password") = AD_Password
conn.Properties("Encrypt Password") = True
conn.Open "Active Directory Provider"
Set cmd.ActiveConnection = conn

But none of the script examples that perform tasks like adding a user to a domain group can use this approach as far as I know. Is there a way to do that somehow?

In VBScript, very often, you are using ADSI to add user to group. Here is a sample code to add a user to a domain group

Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://CN=jeffsmith,DC=fabrikam,DC=com")
Set objGroup = GetObject("LDAP://CN=group1,DC=fabrikam,DC=com")
objGroup.add(objUser.ADsPath) 

It works fine but it's always using your current user credentails. It's because GetObject doesn't allow you to specify alternate credentials.

To specify another credentails, you need to replace GetObject by OpenDSObject

Const ADS_SECURE_AUTHENTICATION = 1
Set openDS = GetObject("LDAP:") 

Set objUser = openDS.OpenDSObject("LDAP://CN=jeffsmith,DC=fabrikam,DC=com",
    "username", 
    "password",
    ADS_SECURE_AUTHENTICATION)

Set objGroup = openDS.OpenDSObject("LDAP://CN=group1,DC=fabrikam,DC=com",
    "username", 
    "password",
    ADS_SECURE_AUTHENTICATION)

objGroup.add(objUser.ADsPath)
