What is NameTranslate?

NameTranslate refers to the IADsNameTranslate interface, which can be used to convert the names of Active Directory objects from one format to another. IADsNameTranslate is an ADSI implementation of the DsCrackNames API. DsCrackNames uses RPC calls to Active Directory instead of LDAP queries. Although a search of Active Directory is still required to translate names, IADsNameTranslate is more efficient than other methods.
