Hi,

I have a customised SharePoint portal running .NET 1.1 code, and interfacing
with Active Directory. The following error is being generated, and I'd love
any pointers as to a permanent resolution. The exception is thrown only
intermittently, and can be resolved with either an IISreset or by recylcing
the application pool under which SharePoint is running.

Regards,

Will Robinson
