    Verifying Login username and password using acitve directory services

    Hi!
    I was trying to verify login information of a user to access a web page using active directory services using a code like this

    string Path="WinNT://DomainName";

    DirectoryEntry entry = new System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntryPath,UsrName,Password);
    Try{
    foreach(DirectoryEntry child in entry.Children)
    {
    if (child.Name.ToUpper()==UsrName.ToUpper() )
    {return true;}
    return false;
    }
    }
    catch (Exception et)
    {ErrLbl.Text="<strong>" + usrs + " " + et.Message + "</strong>";
    return false;
    }

    which should create the directory entry object and return the child entries
    but I am getting this error

    Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again


    Could anyone please let me know what is going wrong or is there any other way to verify user name and passwords.

    I did search the net where there is code using Directorysearcher
    which for me is also giving another error like
    Provider path does not exist or provider path does not allow searching.
    which again doesn't make sence as this path is a valid path.

    Can anyone Please help me.

    Your help is much appreciated.
