system.web.http context.current .user.identity. name shows old usenam

We changed a username in AD. The user now logs on to a computer on our
network using the new username without any problems. They can not logon using
the old username. However, when they access a IIS 6.0 web site where a
programmer compares system.web.http context.current .user.identity. name to a
lookup table containing usernames they could not gain access with the new
userid. We created a web page to show what
system.web.http context.current .user.identity. name is returning. It is
returning their old username. If we put the old username in the table the
user may access the web site. The IIS site logs for the web site show the
new username for the user as he accesses the site. I have used adsiedit to
look at the user's information in AD. It shows only the new username through
out the the account parameters.

We also have a sharepoint 3.0 site that shows the user's old username when
he accesses that site.

What can I do so system.web.http context.current .user.identity. name will
contain the new username for this renamed account?

Thank you,
Antonio

Hello Group, I using impersonation on my web app. I am explicitely setting the User with the identity element in the web.config like this: <identity impersonate="true" userName="MyUsr" password="MyPass" /> But if I ask for HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name it returns my personal Login name, in the format DOMAIN\USERNAME. Shouldn't they be the same? Shouldn't it return MACHINE\MyUsr? Tks to all the replies,

I have a serious issue that seems to be intermittent with User.Identity.Name. In an environment where about 100+ users are logging on to a site with forms authentication, calling HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name returns the correctly logged on user. However, 10% of the time (I'm guessing under stress conditions or simulataneous requests), the wrong user info is being returned.

Hi, I am using HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name to get a user id from a web application. I then use that as part of a name of a cookie I'm writing. 30 minutes later I do a refresh of this page and try to access that cookie. However, because I am using HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name to get the user id to know what that cookie name even is, I am having problems because apparently after 30 minutes...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
