I’ve got windows authentication enabled on an ASP page so that I can grab the current user’s username. This forces the ASP page to run as that user. I want to lock some files down that are currently being accessed by that page. Is there a way to have Windows Authentication enabled and still run the page under the account that IIS is running as?
In the end, I’m just going to be migrating this to ASP.net. There is an article at Microsoft regarding impersonation at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/248187. They have code on that page for a library called LoginAdmin.dll which has a RevertToSelf function that brings the security context back to that of the account running IIS. This can be done much more easily in ASP.net.
