Obtaining Windows Username

[lajuan]

Hey all,
Once again, I find myself requiring your expertise, so I'll say Thank
in advance. I was going to try using Kerberos (thanks for the inf
Ken), but unfortunately after speaking with our network admin, it isn'
an option. So I'm going to use Windows Authentication in the web.confi
file for all forms in the web site. This will force the user to log on
but I need a way to retrieve the user login info. Is there any way t
do that thru the user session or any other way?
Thanks,
Joh

Use System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity. Name

This works only if user is authentcated...
To force user authenticate just set following values in web.config

<authentication mode="Windows" />

and

<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
