Help with Plesk Web Protected folders...

Hi there, I hope someone can help me with this please.

I have a client that asked me the following:

I have a protected subdomain http://subdomain.domain.com that I have protected via the protected folders within Plesk. Once a user has entered Login credentials I want to be able to get the entered userid in subsequent ASP code.

Normally I use the ASP ServerVariables Method to return this e.g.
LOGON_USER = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")

When I try this on the hosted server nothing gets returned. In investigating on my local web server and also Microsoft MSDN it turns out that this is usually the case when anonymous access is allowed. Since I cannot set that or don’t see anything else that I can set Plesk…. Any suggestions?

Also tried :

AUTH_USER = Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_USER")

REMOTE_USER = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_USER")

We are running Plesk 7.5 latest release for Windows.

Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jaun
