[WCF] MSMQ Active Directory Integration not working

Problem: After installing the MSMQ Active Directory Integration and configuring it on our WCF service endpoint, our service was failing to start due to the following error message:

"Binding validation failed because the binding's MsmqAuthenticationMode property is set to WindowsDomain but MSMQ is installed with Active Directory integration disabled. The channel factory or service host cannot be opened."

Solution: we checked our service configuration file where everything was OK. The solution to our problem was to restart our server in order for the Active Directory Integration to be activated and taken into account by our WCF service
