Hello,

i'm building a intranetsite for a company at the moment and i have trouble getting user roles. The problem is that i don't want my users to login thru a logincontrol.

the reason is that my users all logon to windows with a unique number (username doh!! ;) ) and i can use this number to get more info about the user (thru LDAP but with different purposes then login).

now i do want the users to have roles because i have users who should be able to edit the content of the site/ or view "Highly-Top-Secret-For-Your-Eyes-Only" information :D.

so what i'm saying is that the website should be able to tell the difference between the users that request different pages without the user login twice (one time for windows, one time for the intranetsite).

Try using:
If User.Identity.IsAuthenticated = True Then
  ...
End IF

Yes i found the solution

thanks jbenson001 :)

i used it in combination with
formsAuthentication.Authenticate(request.LogonUser Identity.Name,"<defaultpass>")

glad you got it working
