Change IIS user from IWAM to the launching user?

When IIS makes a connection to a database, I am seeing that it is doing so using the "IWAM" account.<br><br>I would like to know if it is possible to reconfigure IIS such that the launching user is used instead of the IWAM account.<br><br>The scenario I am trying to work through is this:<br><br>I am connecting to a database (Oracle 8i) using a generic logon (all connections are made with one account), but I would like to who is making the request. Oracle captures this in an "OSUSER" field, but when making a connection on an ASP page and running thru IIS, this OSUSER field contains the IWAM account name, rather than the NT user who is logged on to the client.<br><br>It makes sense why this is happening, but I would like to know if there is a way that I can determine the NT user who is logged on to the client. The only way I can think of would be to change it so that IIS connects with the launching user rather than the IWAM account. Is this possible, and if so, are there any ramifications of doing so?<br><br>Any info would be much appreciated!
