that is probably you are running your code in localhost as admin right, but if a
regular user access iis, they dont have it, then it will return error, what you
might do is put your code as component on iis, that should work for you

Hi, Here is the code that i am using to authenticate a user. this
works fine when i work with localhost(asp. net 2005 inbuilt iis). but
when i deployed the page to a IIS webserver then it throws "An
operations error occurred".

Here is my code:

bool IsExistInAD( string loginName)
{
string userName = loginName;
bool retVal = false;

try
{
string strLDAP = "LDAP://cn=xxxx, ou=xxxDistributi on Lists,ou=ZZ
DXB,ou=domainname, dc=SD01,dc= domainname, dc=st";

DirectoryEntry objDirEntry = new DirectoryEntry
(strLDAP, "domainname\ \username" , "password",
AuthenticationTypes .Secure);
//objDirEntry. Path =
Response.Write( objDirEntry. Username. ToString( ));
DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher
(objDirEntry) ;

search.Filter = String.Format( "(SAMAccountName ={0})",
userName);
search.PropertiesTo Load.Add( "cn");

SearchResult result = search.FindOne( );

if (result == null)
{
retVal= false;
}
else
{
retVal= true;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Response.Write( "IsExistInAD - " + ex.Message.ToString ()
+ "<br>");
Response.Write( "IsExistInAD - " + ex.Source.ToString( )
+ "<br>");
//Response.Write( userName) ;
}
Response.Write( retVal.ToString( ));
return retVal;
}

ALWAYS IT RETURNS FALSE...
