<br>
I thought for a long time that Active Directory Web Services (ADWS) was not<br>
fully documented because it the documentation talked about SOAP while the<br>
wire packets are in a binary format that doesn't look at all like XML.<br>
<br>
But then I found [MC-NBFX] and [MC-NBFS] and it all fell into place. I think.<br>
<br>
What I want to ask is:<br>
<br>
Is it broadly correct to say ADWS is mostly described in [MS-ADDM], but the<br>
wire packets have been transformed using the encoding described in [MS-NBFS]<br>
(which describes a specialisation of [MS-NBFX])?<br>
<br>
There are other things that extend it various ways ([MS-WSDS], [MS-WSPELD],<br>
[MS-ADCAP], etc), but [MS-ADDM] and [MS-NBFS] are the main ones?<br>
<br>
Is there some documentation that links the two together? I note they don't<br>
mention each other.<br>
<br>
I don't need a long answer, unless I am completely on the wrong track.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
Douglas<o:p></o:p></span></p>
