Specifically, how do I tell if it's windows authentication/groups vs a
MembershipUser/RoleProvider?

The best I have come up with is if (HttpContext.Current.User.Identity is
WindowsIdentity)

Hello Dave,

I think your current means is a good one, also you can access the
IIdetnity.AuthenticationType property to detect whether the authentication
type is windows(Negotiate or NTML) or Forms. e.g.

string authtype = User.Identity.AuthenticationType
