Google is the best place to start your research, I guess. You can always come back and ask for help to proceed further on your findings.

You can wait here for other thoughts though :)

Based on your requirements I can't tell if you are looking for something off the shelf or trying to write your own.

I'll take the approach of writing your own.

Simple google search would answer your question, there a plenty results explaining what it is you are trying to achieve:

.net webservice connect to active directory - Google Search[^]
