Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") is always empty when you turn on Anon
Access - even if Integrated is on too. If you turn off Anon Access then the
users are prompted if they aren't on the domain.

If you configure IE correctly it won't prompt you if the user is on the same
domain:

Thanks for the reply Tom. I had seen the link you sent and have IE configured as described in the article. The problem is(and it sounds like Jon wants the same thing) that a Windows user that has the domain included in their list of "Local Intranet" sites in IE will not get prompted...which is good. But when a user that does not have the site set up in the "Local Intranet" hits the site, they get prompted for a username and password. Instead of those people being prompted, I would like to redirect those users to a different page/site automatically..

Any ideas?

The IE solution is the one we are using for the users that are logged on to the domain, and it works fine. The problem we have, is that some users are only logging on locally. To all intents and purposes they are "Internet" users... I can't diferentiate using IP address either as we are slowly migrating all the standalone users to the domain. Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Jon.

AFAIK, you'd need to write an ISAPI filter that mucks with the
authentication headers (which is beyond my abilities and the scope of this
forum).
