IIS Authenticated User

I am looking to implement impersonation in an ASP application I am writing
and am using the MS article Q306158 as a reference. This article refers to
"the IIS Authenticated Account or User". Can anyone tell me where I can find
out more about this account?
- the permissions it has
- what group if any it belongs to
- the user name of the account
- etc.

Cheers,
Ollie

What this means is the user that has authenticated with IIS. In other
words, when you do not allow anonymous access to your web site and force
users to logon.

I see. That makes sense.

So if I do allow anonymous access to the site, an IIS Authenticated Account
or User would not exist?

Cheers,
Ollie

I've got a web site that has a mix of public and private sections. When you first come to the site, the final option on the menu is "Private" which forces an authentication and then gives you an expanded menu that includes all the private sections of the site. What I'd like to do is give users the proper menu ("public only" or "public and private") depending on whether they have authenticated with the site. I thought of just checking...

Hi, 1. How can I "terminate" an authenticated user? (I would like the server to redirect the user to the login page again. I'm using "forms authentication".) 2. Is it possible to enumerate all sessions on a IIS? Is it possible to enumerate all authenticated users on a IIS (without the use of global.asax and session_start and session_end)?

The 2nd parameter of the method controls whether a persistent cookie is created - so that ASP.NET can "know" if the current user has been previously authenticated (during previous browser sessions).

My intent is to have some pages in the application that do not require authentication in...

I am working with LogIn control and need to set some property for profile after user is authenticated. I thought that LoggedIn event is the right place but system tells me that the property can't be set for anonymous user. I checked User.Identity.IsAuthenticated = false. So when is the good place to set profile properties? Again I need to set up it only once right after user logged in. Thank you.
