Server Variable LOGON_USER not on Win2003 server - Inetserver

Those server variables are available only if your requests are
authenticated.

Anonymous Authentication results in "" for all those server variables.

I suggest that you configure the web pages to not have "Anonymous
Authentication" enabled if you want to use *_USER server variables.

On our NT server I use the Server Variable, LOGON_USER , to determ how much
the different users are allowed to view on our web pages.
Now We are going to run on Win2003 servers, and i have discovered that the
following Server variables is not available: AUTH_USER, LOGON_USER,
REMOTE_USER - Can anyone help me, how to get this information available ?

Th@nx a lot !

I disabled the "Anonymous Authentication ", so only the "Integrated Windows
Authentication" was enabled, but this did not work, it resulted in that I was
not allowed to view any pages.

Then I disabled the "Integrated Windows Authentication" and enabled the
"Digest Authentication for Windows domain servers" which did the trick.

A positive "side effect" is, that all users have to logon using Username and
password, which will get the internal audit guys to clap their hands ;0)
