Setting LDAP authentication in IIS7 and Vista

Question

Hello guys,

I am quite new with IIS7 and still confuse on some configuration. Also, I am new with LDAP authentication. I have this ASP.Net project that needs LDAP authentication. The project and LDAP authentication are both currently running fine on a debug mode with VS2008, however, when I tried to deploy it on IIS7, the LDAP authentication is failing. The error is I could not access AD.

I already did the following:

• set the application pool to use my domain credentials.
• disabled Anonymous and Forms authentication.
• enabled windows authentication.
• tried to search in web for the solution - no luck or just stupid.

Still not sure if I am missing things around here or if what I did were correct.

Hoping for some help.

Thanks.
