I will explain what I need to do and someone may tell me the proper set up
for this.
I have an ASP.NET intranet that maintains its own user database where users
log in through a form. I would like to streamline the login process so that
users do not have to log in manually to the Intranet. If they are logged in
to the domain and click on the Intranet's url, they are logged in the
Intranet automatically. The Intranet app knows who they are and
authenticate them behind the scene. My idea is that the Window's username
is synced with the Intranet username. Somehow I want my asp.net to pull out
the username from Windows and if it exists in the Intranet database, log in
the user. The Intranet website runs under a domain user which has rights to
certain documents folders for reading and writing purposes. That user is
the anonymous user under which the site runs. If I disable anonymous
security, then the Intranet website will run under which user? The logged
in user? The site needs to run under a single user no matter who's logged
in so that the web app has rights to certain folders locally.
Do I enable impersonation? What's the proper set up for this? LDAP?
TIA
