Hi Sriram,

I am David and would like to know more on the logonuser API that you are
using. Hope you could help me. Currently we are in a project to retrieve
OLAP database metadata for display in a web application.

Following are the settings of our environment:

1. IIS Directory Security with "Unanonymous Access" unchecked.
2. Machine.config (Process Model with username="machine")
3. Web.config (impersonate="true" userName="" password="")
4. aspCompat = "true"
5. The IIS is running in Windows XP and accessing Windows 2003 Server OLAP
Database.

Description of Test:
Test 1: Impersonate but without connection to OLAP Server.
Test 2: Impersonate and with connection to OLAP Server.
Test 3: I have another application with impersonation set manually at
web.config file without any programming impersonation as this one with a
connection to OLAP Server. It works. I can read the metadata.

Output is as after the vb coding down below.

This is the vb coding:
