get windows login

[ChiWhiteSox]

i have a webapp that needs to get the windows login of a user and maps it to
my roles database.

im using VS2005 and when i run it im able to get it using
Windowsprincipal.Getuser().Name.

but after i put it into production server, (c:\inetpub\wwwroot\webapp ) and
run it on my browser, the username it gets was : COMPUTERNAME\ASPNET

what am i missing ???

You're missing the fact that by default, ASP.NET sites are accessed
anonymously and sites will run under the credentials of the ASPNET account.
