You didn't mention what environment you were running in, but in order to use
serverless binding and default credentials, the current security context
must be a domain account in the domain you are trying to contact. You can
discover this with
System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.

Also, if you are in an ASP.NET environment and using impersonation, you may
be having double hop issues. This document is very helpful:
