#2276 Enable rootDSE code to retrieve configurationNamingContext attribute
Closed: wontfix 4 years ago by pbrezina. Opened 10 years ago by yelley.

In order to process site-linked GPOs, the GPO code needs to determine the site's DN (from which it can retrieve the relevant LDAP attributes). In order to construct a site's DN, the DN of the configuration container is required, which can be retrieved from the rootDSE entry's configurationNamingContext (configNC) attribute. Note that there is only one configuration naming context per forest, and that every domain controller in the forest has a writeable copy of the configuration directory partition.

Currently, the GPO code (WIP) currently makes an LDAP query to retrieve the configNC attribute from the rootDSE entry. However, since we already make an LDAP query for the rootDSE entry when an LDAP connection is made, it would be useful if the configNC attribute was also retrieved at that point, and stored somewhere from which it could be accessed by the GPO code (so that the GPO code would not need to make another LDAP query).
