ASP.NET Impersonation in a Windows 2003 non domain member server

[Guest]

Hi everybody,

Is it possible to do ASP.NET Impersonation in a windows 2003 non domain
member server (locate at the DMZ)? If so, how can I do that?

Thanks in advance for your kind reply

Easily if you want to impersonate the local account(s). Not something you
can do on a non-domain machine if you want to impersonate a domain user.

You can, however, set up the machine as a machine that is trusted for
searching Active Directory. You can then use credentials of users, but
setting up true impersonation will take a lot of hacks.

Potential solutions that are more complete:
1. Add machine to domain
2. Set up a web service on a domain machine and have the application talk to
that machine for its domain specific (impersonated) data.
