Is there a way to "bind" Windows Authentication Mode to a Membership Provider?

Edit:

I think I can weld this: I want to use Windows Authentication Mode, but be able to get a list of users like you with Membership.GetAllUsers()

.

I am trying to develop a solution for intranet use so all users will be authenticated. I guess I'm looking for the best of both world solutions.

Here is the gist (I'll edit later for clarification)

  • I want to use Windows Authentication Mode. But then Membership.GetUser()

    there is null

    .
  • I need a persistent foreign key in my data to reference the authenticated user. Also I need to have the email address of the users for notifications; Windows auth does not provide this.
  • Any requests to ActiveDirectory will require WindowsIdentity impersonation. IT will not provide a "system" account for this use.

Are there any examples or solutions that fit my needs?

When using Windows Authentication, the name System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name will give you the username. In terms of email address, are you using Exchange?
