Unrecognized attribute 'username'. in web.config file -- why??

[elizabeth]

Can any one tell me why I am getting the error " Unrecognized
attribute 'username'." in this web.config......

<identity impersonate="true" username="test" password="test" />

I can get this to work if I put it in the machine.config file but we
don't want to modify at that level. I have tried all variations of
the preceeding element & various security settings in ISS

<authentication mode="None" />

but I still get this error. Thanks!

Try "userName". Notice the "case-sensitive" issue.

try changing it to userName="test"
it is case sensitive.
