newbie: check if user is a anonymous user

[Jeff]

hey

asp.net 2.0

How can I from the code check if a user is a anonymous user or a loggedin
user...

I guess there must be a better way of doing it than this:
if (Profile.UserName == null) {
//user is anonymous
}

I have a loginview in my webpage, maybe the loginview have some methods or
properties for this... I need to know how to check this from the code
page...... .cs files

Any suggestions?

How about this:

IPrincipal iPrincipal = HttpContext.Current.User;
if (iPrincipal.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
{
authenticated = true;

I think you missed the IsAnonymous property of the Profile Class.
