Hello,

First I apologize by my english not being so good. Anyways here I go:

The scenario consists on a Web application being accessed by determined
users which should redirect to a ASP page providing other User credentials.
On this manner, when any user with Credentials_1 browses my app, this last
one should jump to the mentioned ASP web page using the built-in username and
password (Credentials_2).

Unfortunately I was not able to somekind supply credentials for the
UI.HttpRequest object which can be associated to the
HttpResponse.Redirect(URL) method.

Could please anyone give me some approach to perform this action?

Thanks in advance

You can pass to redirect url credentials using querystring.But encrypt the
querystring data as it is secure info.

Thanks Santhi for your answer but the issue consists on authenticate the Web
Request versus IIS via Basic/Windows authentication, As far as i know the
credentials are not provided in a QueryString basis but in the Web Client
cache.

My WebApp is located in a web folder which can be reached by any user
(read/execute permisssion for everyone).

By the other side I have a asp page located in the same machine but
different web folder. This folder only can be reached by a specific user so I
need to provide this last user credentials in the redirection performed in my
.aspx page.

I expect this explanation will help on looking for the answer.

Thanks
