You won't unless you set the IIS application NOT to use anonymous authentication.  It must use windows authentication only.

I did what u suggested. The details i am getting from AD. But I need to enter the user name and password. Is there any option to get the details with out entering the password. So that i can avoid my login screen.

See if this doesn't help you get what you are after.

Hi, Thank you so much for supporting me...

I referred the link , in the function
 public static bool LoadSession(string userName, string password, string domainControllerServerName)

you are passing the password. But I don't want to pass the password to AD. I need to  get the Currently logged in  Active directory user details with out entering the password. Could you please have a look on this and help me?

Thanks in advance

Read closer.  I just used it to validate their credentials.  You do not need to do that.  You need the code below it.

I tried that code. its working fine in Visual studio development server. But after hosting to IIS, the user name is displaying as
ASPNET and not getting any other AD Details. I am using IIS5.1 . Please have a look on this and help me.

Are you hard coding the user's username or are you attempting to get it from the Request.ServerVariables collection?

Thank you very much for your support.

I am getting the username with this code.

private String GetLoggedUser()
        {
            string Username = Page.User.Identity.Name;
            int hasDomain = Username.IndexOf(@"\");
            if (hasDomain > 0)
            {
                Username = Username.Remove(0, hasDomain + 1);
            }
            return Username;
        }


And i am trying to get the AD Details with following code

string connection = "LDAP://SEDC.HELLO.COM";
            String domainAndUsername = "HELLO" + @"\" + GetLoggedUser();
          using (DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry(connection))
            {
                string UserName = GetLoggedUser();
                try
                {
                    DirectorySearcher dssearch = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
                    dssearch.Filter = "(sAMAccountName=" + UserName + ")";
                    dssearch.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn");
                    SearchResult sresult = dssearch.FindOne();
                    string path = sresult.Path;
                    DirectoryEntry dsresult = sresult.GetDirectoryEntry();
                    if (dsresult.Properties["givenName"].Value != null)
                        txtFullName.Text = dsresult.Properties["givenName"][0].ToString();
                    //if (dsresult.Properties["sn"].Value != null)
                    //    txtTelephone.Text = dsresult.Properties["sn"][0].ToString();
                    if (dsresult.Properties["mail"].Value != null)
                        txtEmail.Text = dsresult.Properties["mail"][0].ToString();
                    if (dsresult.Properties["telephoneNumber"].Value != null)
                        txtTelephone.Text = dsresult.Properties["telephoneNumber"][0].ToString();
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    lblError.Text = ex.Message.ToString();
                }
            }


After hosting this, username is coming  ASPNET.  and able to connect AD.

Please have a look on this and help me..
Thanks in advance

I already gave you the code but yet you are not using it.  I can't help you if you won't help yourself.
