Is it possible to Use the credentials (or even a token, that a user entered when he logged in windows, lets say XP). what I am in search here is not applying a single sign on (which requires signing in again), but the single sign on would be that of the MS windows log-in window.

Is this possible??? I understand security in windows is of high importance as well, but isnt there a way to get a token and use it in some other authentication mechanism???

Note: first and only sign in would be that of the Microsoft Windows Log in window and then the user would be able to access my application using the cached credentials (but without re loggin in).

Many thanks!
