I'm trying to create a command line based java application that parses
data returned from an active directory ldap query. The one attribute I
want returned is a field that keeps track of the last time someone
logged into a Windows domain. Active Directory keeps track of this time
stamp by incrementing a counter every 100 nanoseconds and is based off
of January 1 1601.

Does java have anything that lets me add one date to a period of time in
order to arrive at a 2nd date?  For example I take 1/1/1601 and add a
number of days/hours/min/seconds to it (calculated from the attribute
from ADS) and I get a new date as a result? I've noticed the Date class
only starts counting at 1970 which might make what I want to do
impossible. Doing this task in Visual Basic scripting works well
(despite the 1601 base year) but there are other drawbacks that come
into play with that method.

thanks
