Help with Active Direct

[sribu]

How can we validate a user against Active Directory without specifying the password in vb.net?I am using the .net 1.1 framework

I want to pass the current windows session username and domain name through a web service and validate this information against active directory on the server.

I can retrieve the username and domain name for the current session but I will not have the Password.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
GC
