Ok, I see you didn't specify any authentication type when binding, If you don't set the Authetication type, the credentials of the current process will be used. Change your binding to: DirectoryEntry("WinNT://nttest/Administrators,group",@"NTTestdomain\Administrator","intelligroup", AuthenticationTypes.Secure);
and try again.... Sorry for that.
