I'm developing a database that will be using a challenge/response login. Is there a way I can capture the username that is entered?

Thanks in advance,

You have to disable anonymous access via the IIS manager. Then you can use request.servervariables("AUTH_USER") to get the WinNT name

I jumped the gun on this post a little. When I use the AUTH_USER of REMOTE_USER variables, I get INFO\Administrator as a username. Do I have to use some string manipulation to get rid of the INFO\ part?

Yes you will need to do some string manipulation. The names are retrieved in DOMAIN\USERNAME format
