Internet programming and ASP context

Hi ,
I have a client Application in my machine . This client Application runs on a NT 4.0 SP3 WorkStation . After log on to NT with my username and password , I start my application . Now my application also has a login authentication .
So I have to logon to my application to use it . Now from my application , I invoke an ASP page on a web server passing it my application's username and password using AfxParseURLEx and some more calls (using HTTP ) .

The problem is -> on the WebServer , the ASP gets executed only using my Windows NT login on the client side and not the login id and password which I pass to AfxParseURLEx . (I mean the Application login).

I mean Suppose I logon to Winnt on my machine using ABC login and ABC password and log on to my application using login CDE and password CDE , the ASP page on the server side takes only the context of my NT login and not my application login .

I tried the same thing from IE 4.0 , I mean passing the username and password in the URL and invoking the ASP page and it worked . In this case I typed the username and password and the domain name and URL in the IE browser and the context was getting passed correctly . It is able to take my username and password which I pass and not my NT Login .

I don't how to achieve the same using VC++ 6.0 and from
AfxParseUrlEx .

If you have solution to this problem , please let me know .

Thanks ,

Hi.

I think that you misunderstand window NT security and IE security.
Simply saying, ASP don't have the functionality of modification
of password of Window NT.

When you already log in your LAN by Domain Name, you already got
Window NT security. So. ASP works your new password on only IE, not
Window NT.

However, I may also misunderstand this.
When ISP set the home page of the customer, I think that ISP set
the customer id and password to Widnow NT login as well as the directory permission to its customer home page.

Anyway, ASP is a server side program on IIS, not Window NT.
Does anyone have a good idea?
