Assert User.Identity.Name is set right in my MVC app

I would like to make sure that the @User.Idenity.Name

identity (roger01) is displayed when displayed .

I also set the anonymous authentication id to "roger01", but didn't change anything.

This answer looks like it can accomplish what you need.

IIS Application Pool ID

When creating a new application pool, it is often convenient to identify the identity that the pool is using. The problem usually occurs on IIS 7 / 7.5 where application pools use the IIS form identifiers AppPool \ identityname by default . And when you provide access to databases / file you need to provide the username exactly.

I usually use this simple script. Just copy it into a text file, name it test.aspx and point your browser to it. the application pools id name will be presented to you in the path.

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>

Current user: <%= System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name %>


via Application Pool Programmatic ID
