VS 2010 Impersonate current windows identity vs logonuser

$
0
0
I have a wcf service with a method that copies files from a network share to a temp folder on the web server. It works perfectly if I use the logonuser function but not if I use the currentwindowsidentity.

I need to be able it impersonate the currently logged in user, not have to specify any credentials. I have found other users report the same problem as well and I have not been able to find a solution.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Code that does do impersonation but cannot see the files on the share. I can check

Public Function CopyFiletoSite(filename As String, id As Integer) As String

Try

Dim impersonationContext As System.Security.Principal.WindowsImpersonationContext
Dim currentWindowsIdentity As System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity

currentWindowsIdentity = CType(WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent, System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity)
impersonationContext = currentWindowsIdentity.Impersonate()

For Each File In Directory.GetFiles(HostingEnvironment.ApplicationPhysicalPath & "Clientbin\Images\")

IO.File.Delete(File.ToString)

Next

If IO.File.Exists(filename) Then

Dim tmpfilename As String = id & ".tif"

IO.File.Copy(filename, (HostingEnvironment.ApplicationPhysicalPath & "Clientbin\Images\" & tmpfilename), True)

Return tmpfilename

Else

Return "Cannot find this file:" & filename & " Current user is" & ServiceSecurityContext.Current.WindowsIdentity.Name.ToString

End If

impersonationContext.Undo()

Return "Impersonate"


Catch ex As Exception

Return ex.Message


End Try
End Function

'Code that works but i have to specify domain, user, and password which I cannot do in live environment. I need to be able to detect and use the current users context.
