Hiya,

I'm having some problems with the Active Directory discovery methods, I select the new active directory container button and whenever I click ok on that dialog box it crashes out with the following error:

System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.ActiveDirectoryOperationException: Current security context is not associated with an Active Directory domain or forest.
at System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.DirectoryContext.GetLoggedOnDomain()
at System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.DirectoryContext.IsContextValid(DirectoryContext context, DirectoryContextType contextType)

at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

Any help would be much appreciated,

Thanks

Sorry for the really basic question here, but are you logged on to a domain (on the site server)?

Hey,

I was logged on locally, all works fine when I use a domain login...silly me.
