Hello there!

Do we support Multiple Forests

Is there an example I can look at?

Thanks

The UnboundID LDAP SDK does not have any specific support for Active Directory forests.

I'm not really familiar with the Microsoft-proprietary aspects of Active Directory, but if you can interact with multiple forests using standard LDAP operations then the LDAP SDK should support it. If you can interact with multiple forests using LDAP but only when using proprietary controls or extended operations, then the LDAP SDK doesn't include that support directly but should provide the APIs you need to implement support for those elements in your own code (assuming that the format for those controls/extended operations is publicly documented).
