I'm using a custom AJAX based validation control to check user name availability from database. It's working alright in my development machine but in production server we are using Windows Authentication to authenticate by domain.

The control is inherited from base validator and checks for user name availability from database perfectly but on form submission at Page.IsValid check it gives the following error.

remote server returned an error 401 unauthorized

Both the form and webmethod are in the same page/file. I even tried creating webmethod in a separate standalone webservice but error still there.
