Redirecting a request while also submitting Windows-Token

[Manfred Bauer]

Dear all,

I have written an ASP.NET application using NT-Authentfication against an
Active Directory domain. Users that are logged on have access to an Outlook
Web Access site, also using NT-Authentfication (and running on the same
machine). Because OWA is implemented as website (not virtual folder) in IIS,
my users get the logon-dialog-box twice: first, when they log on to my
website, and afterwards when they want to use Outlook Web Access.

My question is:

Is there a way to redirect authenticated users to the OWA-website, while the
ASP.NET code also transphers the Windows-Token to the OWA-site?

Many thanks for any help,
Manfred Bauer

Hi Manfred:

Are your users coming into the 2 sites from across the Internet or are
they on a machine inside the same domain as the servers?

Hi Scott,

the users come from across the internet, so by default they don't submit
their Windows-Logon informations.

I want use form auth, while checking the user info against AD
programatically (by using Namespace "System.DirectoryServices"). After (a
successful) "Authenticate" you have access to the
"Request.UserLogonIdentity.Token" property. Is there a way to make a
"Server.Transpher" and while also submitting this Token, just like the IE
does, when it's configured to send user's details automatically?

Many thanks,
Manfred
