CGI.AUTH_USER

Hi All

Variable  #cgi.auth_user# did not give the values when I run the application on XP. In NT, it give correct login name and application works perfect !!

1. I am having application.cfm file in my folder, in that I assigned the variable  as follow :
<CFSET #UserId# = cgi.auth_user>.

2. In my application, I have email function that deliver the status email to concerned people on daily basis.  This application first get the name of the user  from the above variable and search the email-id which already stored in database based on the variable.  It is working perfect in NT. But in XP I could not see the value of the variable and finally, the email function did not work.

We use IE 6.0.2800

If you provide the appropriate comments  will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Make sure that you turn off Anonymous Users in the directory security
section of the site and allow Basic Authentication, now when you try and
browse the site for the first time you will be presented with a login
dialog.
