LOGON_USER & Anonymous Access

Is there a way to obtain user information (using LOGON_USER server
variables) when you have set up the security to Anonymous Access? I
have tried setting the security to both Anonymous + Window Integrated,
without any luck. I'm using IIS 6.0 on Windows Server 2003

Thanks in advance!

That ought to have worked, so long as:

1) you have a Windows domain

2) your IIS machine is part of that domain

3) your client machine is part of that domain

4) your client browser is IE

5) your client machine is actually logged on to the domain, i.e. the user
hasn't logged on locally...

Other scenarios may also work, but the above certainly should...

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your reply. I met all the criterias you listed above, but
it still doesn't work.
I tried using the same settings on IIS 5.0, and it seemed to have
worked. Doesn't seem to work with IIS 6.0.

Any idea why?

Thanks!

I have to confess I'm not a networking specialist... However, Win2k3s comes
with IIS 6 straight out of the box, so when you say it works with IIS 5,
that is presumably on a Windows 2000 server, right...? IIRC, Win2k3s fully
patched has much tighter security features than Win2k, so that might be
something to look at...

Can you please take the code below and copy it exactly into an aspx page,
place that in the app running on your IIS 6 box, run it, and tell me what
the various server variables say?

You won't get this working. If you anon and windows integrated enabled then
the browser will first issue an anon request for your page. As that request
works and there is no prompt for authentication you can't get their
credentials.

No.
I have tried setting the security to both Anonymous + Window
Integrated,
without any luck. I'm using IIS 6.0 on Windows Server 2003

That ought to have worked, so long as:

1) you have a Windows domain

2) your IIS machine is part of that domain

3) your client machine is part of that domain

4) your client browser is IE

5) your client machine is actually logged on to the domain, i.e. the user
hasn't logged on locally...

Other scenarios may also work, but the above certainly should...

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your reply. I met all the criterias you listed above, but
it still doesn't work.
I tried using the same settings on IIS 5.0, and it seemed to have
worked. Doesn't seem to work with IIS 6.0.

Any idea why?

Thanks!

I have to confess I'm not a networking specialist... However, Win2k3s comes

that is presumably on a Windows 2000 server, right...? IIRC, Win2k3s fully
patched has much tighter security features than Win2k, so that might be
something to look at...

Can you please take the code below and copy it exactly into an aspx page,
place that in the app running on your IIS 6 box, run it, and tell me what
the various server variables say?

by: Maria | last post by:
I'm trying to get the NT login id of a user on a web page without making the user type it into a login box. I'm using the LOGON_USER server variable. The problem is, if the web page allows anonymous access, LOGON_USER returns nothing. If the page is set to Basic Security, the NT login popup box comes up, even though the user is already logged into the network, and HAS access to this page. Moreover, if I try this on my PC instead of our...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
