Bonjour
IIS4 with NT 4.0 or IIS5 with WIN 2000 server ??
Because the config is different
getRemoteUser() is not null and give the right user who is loging in the
network when in IIS5 you have to enable Anonymous access and Basic
authentification, so when the client ask to the server a ressource, if the
client is known by the network, Internet Explorer ( not Netscape out the
world of Microsoft !! ) send to IIS the userid, and IIS can authenticate the
client and req.getRemoteUser() is not null ..
ouf !!
If my english is bad I hope my answer is not bad ..
