How do I get the window username and password information so that I can imporsonate to access a remote file server using the UNC path using asp .net or c# code.
You are using an out of date browser. It may not display this or other websites correctly.
You should upgrade or use an alternative browser.

He indicated that he was using ASP.NET. In this case,
SystemInformation.UserName might not work becuase ASP.NET is running in a
special account.
As for the password, imagine how insecure the system would be if any program
at any time could read both the username and password. Trojan horses would
have a field day. So, no, it is probably not possible to read the password.
ASP.NET makes it relatively easy to impersonate the logged in user. It has
been a while since I had to do this but you might try turning anonymous off
and setting the @impersonate attribute on the <identity> tag to "true" in
the machine.config. That way the ASP.NET process takes on the identity of
the person who is sitting at the browser.
