Get the current "identitites"

[serializer]

I am using impersonation functions (WindowsIdentity.Impersonate) to get network access when running as SYSTEM.

I would like to log which user SYSTEM has impersonated as but GetCurrent only returns system. Also, it is possible to impersonate more than once so that SYSTEM gets access to multiple networks.

My qestion is how I can find out which identities my SYSTEM account holds at the moment?

my understanding is that if you are using impersonation, then GetCurrent would return the account you are impersonating. Not the system account.

of course, I have only using impersonation in an asp.net context, not a windows service context.

as for multiple impersonations. this article may help
