ADFS and ASP .NET impersonate

Hi!

I have problems with impersonating in ASP .NET (both 1.1 and 2.0 framework).
When I authenticate an application through ADFS, the imperonation won't
work.
I only get the anonymous user when I try to access network resources through
ASP .NET

How can I use impersonating when the application is authenticated through
ADFS?
I have tested with both Claim-aware and Windows NT token-based applications.

Hello Mathias,

Could you describe what have u done to turn on impersonate?
Did u turn off anonymous access and add impersonate=true to the web.conif?

Hi!

Thanks for replying.

Yes I have impersonate=true in the web.config. But because I use ADFS for
authentication I must have anonymous access enabled on the application.

So the question is if there is a way to do impersonation even when anonymous
access is enabled? Perhaps this is a feature drop in ADFS?
