How do you authenicate the active directory using Windows IIS? Any help given is greatly appreciated.

 

This is what I have in my .Net notes that I used about a year ago...

 

Manage IIS > right Click Web Sites > Properties > Directory Security >

Edit Button (Auth & Access Control) > uncheck 'Enable anonymous access'

and make sure 'Integrated Widows Auth' is checkmarked

 

Then if you want the ASP.Net to run as the web user then add this to

your web.config

<identity impersonate="true" />

 

Now you can access the username by:

HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;

using System.Security.Principal; User.Identity.Name;

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity.Name;
