Hi

How do I the the username that was used when you logged into Windows from asp .net or c#? Thanks

Cheers,
James
 
I need the window username and password information so that I can imporsonate to access a remote file server using the UNC path. How can I do that not using asp server object but asp .net or c# code.

Note that it may not work consistently if you allow anonymous users in IIS.

It's the same syntax for ASP and ASP.NET and C# and VB.NET:
Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")

For impersonation details you can look here:

Can I do in the following way and setting <identity impersonate="false"/>

WindowsImpersonationContext context = WindowsIdentity.Impersonate(System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Token);

//perform action here

context.Undo();
