I'm using HttpApplication.User.Identity.Name to get the login id for the current user and then using that login id to read custom security information from a database. If a user's login id is changed in Active Directory, the HttpApplication.User.Identity.Name property still returns their old login id, and thus the security check is failing.

After turning Trace on, I noticed that the AUTH_USER and REMOTE_USER server variables also contain the old login id. The LOGON_USER variable contains the new login value.

I've tried restarting IIS thinking that something may be cached, but still have the same problem.

Any ideas?
