If you want a graphical tool to find the DN of an Active Directory object then the free Microsoft tool LDP.exe should do the trick. The tool is included with the Windows Server OS and can be accessed from your local computer if you have the Windows Server 2003 Admin Pack or the 2008 RSAT installed.
Ldp Exe Microsoft Windows 7 Download
As Microsoft describes: “Ldp.exe is a Windows 2000 Support Tools utility you can use to perform Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) searches against the Active Directory for specific information given search criteria. This is a tool that is developed and distributed by Microsoft. The tool is designed to access LDAP databases, as the name indicates. The tool was originally developed for Windows 2000, then updated for 2003, and still works on 2008. The tool does not need to run on a server, it can run on Windows XP or 7. Getting the error: Not a valid 32-bit application can have many causes: I have listed some of them below. File is corrupt, bad, or missing. If the hard disk drive is corrupted or bad it can cause working programs to fail either because not all the data can be read from the hard disk drive or because the program has become corrupted while on the drive.
Note: The steps below are from the 2008 R2 RSAT version of LDP, the process is very similar for the 2003 version however some of the memu names etc at a bit different.
You can do some real damage to your domain using this tool, I recommend that when you bind to the domain you user the credentials of a standard use not an administrator.
1) Open Start => run enter LDP and press OK
2) Go to Connection => connect
3) Enter the FQDN of the domain or of a domain controller and press OK
4) Go to connection Bind
5) Either select “Bind as current user” or specify some alternative credentials, then press OK.
I recommend that when you bind to the domain you use the credentials of a standard user not an administrator.
6) go to View => Tree
7) On the Tree View dialog you caa normally just press OK but if you have a large domain you may want to specify the DN of a root to reduce the load on the DC.
8) Browse down the tree on the left (double-click to expand) until you get to the object you want the DN of. Right-click the object and select Copy DN
9) Paste the DN in notepad or wherever.

Introduction
When you create an Authentication Object on a FireSIGHT Management Center for Active Directory LDAP Over SSL/TLS (LDAPS), it may sometimes be necessary to test the CA cert and SSL/TLS connection, and verify if the Authentication Object fails the test. This document explains how to run the test using Microsoft Ldp.exe.
How to Verify
Before You Begin
Login to a Microsoft Windows local computer with a user account that has local Administrative privilege to perform the steps on this document.
Ldp Exe Tool
Note: If you do not currently have ldp.exe available on your system, you must first download the Windows Support Tools. This is available on the Microsoft website. Once you download and install the Windows Support Tools, follow the below steps.
Perform this test on a local Windows computer that has not been a member of a domain, as it would trust the Root or Enterprise CA if it joined a domain. If a local computer is no longer in a domain, the Root or Enterprise CA certificate should be removed from the local computer Trusted Root Certification Authorities store before performing this test.
Verification Steps
Step 1: Start ldp.exe application. Go to the Start menu and click Run. Type ldp.exe and hit the OK button.
Step 2: Connect to the Domain Controller using the domain controller FQDN. In order to connect, go to Connection > Connect and enter the Domain Controller FQDN. Then select SSL, specify port 636 as shown below and click OK.
Step 3: If the Root or Enterprise CA is not trusted on a local computer, the result looks as below. The error message indicates that the certificate received from the remote server was issued by an untrusted certificate authority.
Step 4: Filtering the event messages on local Windows computer with the following criteria provides a specific result:
- Event Source = Schannel
- Event ID = 36882
Step 5: Import the CA Certificate to the local windows computer certificate store.
i. Run Microsoft Management Console (MMC). Go to the Start menu and click Run. Type mmc and hit the OK button.
ii. Add local computer certificate snap-in. Navigate to the following options on the File menu:
Add/Remote Snap-in > Certificates > Add > Choose 'Computer Account' > Local Computer:(the computer this console is running on) > Finish > OK.
iii. Import the CA certificate.
Console Root > Certificates (Local Computer) > Trusted Root Certification Authorities > Certificates > Right click > All Tasks > Import.
- Click Next and Browse to Base64 Encoded X.509 Certificate (*.cer, *.crt) CA certificate file. Then select the file.
- Click Open > Next and select Place all certificates in the following store: Trusted Root Certification Authorities.
- Click Next > Finish to import the file.
iv. Confirm that the CA is listed with other trusted root CAs.
Step 6: Follow the Step 1 and 2 to connect to the AD LDAP server over SSL. If the CA certificate is correct, the first 10 lines on the right pane of ldp.exe should be as below:
Test Result
If a certificate and LDAP connection pass this test, you can successfully configure the Authentication Object for LDAP over SSL/TLS. However, if the test fail due to LDAP server configuration or certificate issue, please resolve the issue on the AD server or download the correct CA certificate before you configure the Authentication Object on the FireSIGHT Management Center.
