Server Not operational

Question

This is the connectionString am using in my web.config:

<add key="GlobalAppStoreActiveDirectoryPath" value="GC://10.xxx.xx.xxx/DC=company,DC=com"/>

the code in my authentication page:

using (var searchRoot = new DirectoryEntry(_path, domUserName, password))
{
try
{
using (var searcher = new DirectorySearcher(searchRoot))
{
    searcher.Filter = "(SAMAccountName=" + username + ")";
    searcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn");
    var result = searcher.FindOne();//---> am getting an exception here "server not operational"

The telnet to the Active Directory Server is working telnet 10.xxx.xx.xxx 3268

But am not getting authenticated.Plz help in this regard

Can you just try the following as your LDAP connexion string (it works for me) :

"LDAP://10.xxx.xx.xxx:3268/DC=company,DC=com"
