Is there a specific problem you're trying to solve? Is this blocking your implementation of ADWS? </div>

MS-ADDM is the main documentation for ADWS. MS-NBFS describes the SOAP protocol. ADWS uses the common SOAP based web service protocol described in MS-NBFS, but MS-NBFS is not specific for ADWS. </div>

<b>Subject:</b> [EXTERNAL] What is ADWS?</div>
<div style="direction:ltr"> </div>
<div class="x_elementToProof" style="font-size:11pt">hi Dochelp.<br>
<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</div>
