Re: Application Pool domain credentials

a) What type of web page is this? ASP? ASP.NET? PHP? That will affect what
account is actually used to connect to AD

b) Are you allowing anonymous authentication? Or are you forcing the user to
authenticate to access the web page? if the latter, what AuthN mechanism are
you using (e.g. Basic, IWA, Digest etc)?

I am building a web page that will invoke a server-side process that needs
to query Active Directory.

I have set up a non-privileged account and have configured an application
pool for the virtual directory to use this account on the identity tab.

When I run the application, I am still not properly credentialed when I
get to AD with my ADODB connection.

Is there an easy way to do this? I would think it would be better to
configure an App Pool with credentials for this virtual directory then it
would be to put credentials into the server-side script (even though they
may be encrypted in the web.config file)

Any advice would be appreciated. I am new to web programming so I could be
way off base here.

Thanks

Steve Smith
