Personally I use the .config file to store an encrypted version of the
username and password to use.

I you could get the webservice to run under a different useraccount (web
application pool in Win2003 server.) You may then be able to specify a
domain account for this apppool, and then that account would be used when
talking to the DC.

Another (but not recommended way) would be to open for anonymous access to
AD.
