I am using basic authentication and SSL for connecting to a secure area on a Windows 2000 Server running IIS 5.0 over the Internet. I have a welcome/login page with a link. When the link is selected it will prompt the user with the popup window asking for the user’s name and password.
My question is how can I send the user to the user’s specific directory since each user has their own directory branched from this main area on the web site? I was initially hoping that I could get something from the environment variables such as the username and write a simple script to send it to the correct directory, but that value was empty. Do I need to change some setting on the web server to be able to see the username or am I going about it completely wrong?
Any suggestions?
