Page.User.Identity.NameWhere does this function get the name from ?
reason i ask is, a user wanted their name changing on the domain, i fixe everything else (email,login etc etc) but this function still displays the old name cheers mark The .net uses the identity of the current login user. But It depends on the
kind of authentication you use. If you are using Windows based authentication then it will use NT Domain user id, But in some cases your application is also running under admin id, in this case you impersonate admin id to run application. you may check ur web.config for it.

weird, seems to be windows auth <authentication mode="Windows" /> <identity impersonate="true" /> still shows the wrong name, might just be the active directory mark Show quoteHide quote "Altaf Al-Amin Najwani" <altaf.ala***@gmail.com> wrote in message news:0D8B54BC-271C-48EB-805E-0C0DCFFC9FCF@microsoft.com... > The .net uses the identity of the current login user.

IIS. Probabaly what you need to do in IIS is disallow anonymous access. The impersonate setting is unrelated to determining User.Identity.Name. It's used for setting a thread token on the executing thread based upon IIS' user. Chances are that you don't need or want that if you simply want to know who the user is. -Brock http://staff.develop.com/ballen Show quoteHide quote > cheers, > > weird, seems to be windows auth > > <authentication mode="Windows" /> > <identity impersonate="true" /> > still shows the wrong name, might just be the active directory > > mark > "Altaf Al-Amin Najwani" <altaf.ala***@gmail.com> wrote in message > news:0D8B54BC-271C-48EB-805E-0C0DCFFC9FCF@microsoft.com... >> The .net uses the identity of the current login user.
