I am trying to create a password reset utility for my company, and I want to use .Net to do this. Right now I am just trying to get a connection to AD. I keep getting the following error
"System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted"
Here is code that I am using.
I have tried turning off anonymous authenication, changing the machine.config file, editing the web.config file, making sure my domain account has permissions to my web app directory... I am out of ideas, and out of research. Any ideas?

The most likely way for the world to be destroyed, most experts agree, is by accident. That's where we come in; we're computer professionals. We cause accidents.

Else
locationErrorLabel.Text = "fail"
