Hmmm... no I believe you would get "(null)" because when using trusted auth
first the web server, acting as the client, will attempt to connect to the
database server. The database server will see that you're specifying trusted
auth via the connection string and ask windows to authenticate you. If
Windows can't authenticate you, then you're "(null)" because SQL couldn't
obtain the user information from Windows.
