Web Application Suddenly No Longer Authenticating AD

We have an odd problem.

Sometime this morning our classic asp web application stopped
authenticating against active directory. This is our only "classic" asp
app that authenticates against ad. Note that this app has been in
production for three years with no problems. All .NET apps are
authenticating fine from the same server. This same classic asp app
authenticates fine from our development server. There have been no code
changes to this app.

We're using the login id and password to bind the necessary ad objects
- we check for err.number - if equal to zero, we're authenticated, if
not equal to zero then authentication failed.

We checked with the network people and they say ad is working fine and
the server is able to authenticate. The app doesn't go through a
firewall -so no hang up there. The guys who manage the web server say
they haven't made any changes to it. They confirmed that the app is in
the correct app pool so it doesn't conflict with 2.0 apps.

I'm stumped. Any ideas or suggestions about what to look at next?

Thanks.
Lisa

I should have added that the web server is a Windows 2003 Server.

Hello All, In IIS 6.0 We have a concept of worker processes and application pools. As I understand it, we can have multiple worker process per appliction pool. Each worker process is dedicated to a pool. If I assign only one application to a applicaton pool and have multiple worker processes assigned to that pool. Will my application be processed by many worker processes?

A consultant mentioned that IIS 6 Application Pooling could be used in place of Impersonation when authenticating on a windows network between two different servers on the same domain - one with IIS and the other with SQL Server. However, it appears that like Impersonation, we're going to have to use a domain account and manage a domain password to pull this off. How exactly would it work with Application Pooling authenticating to SQL...

I can suddenly no longer browse any of my ASP.net web services. The browser returns: Server Application Unavailable and tells me to look at the Application Event Log for more details.

Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks. ...

SQL Server will be used as the back-end database to a non trivial client application. In question is the choice of client application: I need to be able to speak intelligently about when one client (MS Access vs ..NET Windows Forms) would be preferred over the other. While I have some good arguments on both sides, I would appreciate your points of view on the topic.

Hello, does anyone know why one would lose their styles after successfully authenticating against forms auth? I'm using asp.net 2.0 and the page that is being redirected to after authenticating is a content page created from a masterpage.master. Styles are lost on all controls on all content pages not just the main content page. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Jon
