Get User or Group by objectSID Filter   

Hi,

I would like in c# get a user or a group using objectSID ref.

sample:
******
DirectoryEntry de = Utility.GetDirectoryObject();

DirectorySearcher deSearch = new DirectorySearcher();

deSearch.SearchRoot = de;

deSearch.Filter = "(&(objectClass=group)(objectSid=" + SID + "))";

SearchResult result = deSearch.FindOne();

My problem :
**********
I have a SID value in byte[] type. What sort of string value I have to put
in my filter and how to obtain it?

Thanks a lot
