I am developing a chat application using VB.NET and ASP.NET and I need to identify the particular user name users post messages. At present, it just shows my name, even for messages I haven't posted.
What am I doing wrong?
A:
The process running on the server is likely to run on your account. You need users to login to your chat application.
Do you have a login page on your chat? How does it work?
Here are some posibiloties to start with: Try to use membershi api http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998347.aspx or login through
Use OpenId. (As is used here, when you login to Stack Overflow)
