We have two different work areas having two different domain for each. We have deployed all our ASP.Net applications on first working area having domain domain1.com. All applications are running on IIS6 server. We are accessing all those applications from second working area having domain domain2.com. All applications are smoothly accessible from domain2.com. Now we have migrated our domain and have changed our domain name from domain2.com to domain3.com. After migration process all applications are not accessible from new domain i.e. domain3.com. It gives the error "No authority could be contacted for authentication". How can I resolve this problem.

How are you authenticating and what is the provider you are using? When you say domain, are you talking about an active directory domain or web site domain?

I have the same exact problem on a server 2003 and IIS 6.0. The solution was to remove the server off the domain and re-add back in.

It works and nothing else was affected after rebooting the server.
