IsInRole problem

[Julia]

Hi

I have a strange problem with my asp.net application. I am using the
following code to see if a user is in a windows group:

if(!System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal.IsInR ole(System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.App Settings.Ge(@"WindowsGroupForVaspUsers")))

I also have this row in my config file:

<add key="WindowsGroupForVaspUsers" value="adcsth1800\VASP"/>

The strange thing is that this works fine in one application but in another
application (I run locally on the same computer) I need to use slash instead
on back slash for the code to work. I need to change the config file to this:

<add key="WindowsGroupForVaspUsers" value="adcsth1800/VASP"/>

Why???

Thanks
Julia
