Dear SQL Team, I want to create a website which is able to search in all 3 of our Domains to find all SQL Servers and instances. I have tried using LDAP but I cannot find a property which allows me to find only servers with SQL Server installed on it. Also I have tried SMO but couldn't find a property allowing me to specify which Windows Active Directory Domain to search SQL Servers. It appears to only search in the Domain you are currently logged into.

I am using VB.Net to create a DBA Dashboard and would like to dynamically add SQL Servers. Would you mind letting me know where I should start search?

Any suggestions much appreciate.


Kind Regards
Amber
