Hello,
There some Win API methods (DsGetDcName, DsEnumerateDomainTrustsW, LookupAccountSid) I would like to use with 636 port.
Could you please tell me if there is any way to make this API working via 636 port?
If there is no way to do that, what are the alternatives?

Active Directory natively uses quite a range of services and outgoing ports. Since you want to limit use on port 636 you should read up on how to setup LDAPS (LDAP over SSL) on Windows

@Anonymous I have already set up LDAPS on Windows. Anyway, these API methods still use 389 port for AD communication. So, I would like to get some info if there is any way to make them working with 636 port.
You wouldn't be able to change the core functionality.

@Anonymous Thank you very much for your response! Unfortunately, it is not helpful. I am deeply interested in if I can use the API methods I provided. I would appreciate any suggestions regarding them!
