I just used a View Component and placed it in the layout. this is not
exactly like you're trying to do (it uses AD at the backend) but you'll see
it has to access Session to properly work. This is very early for me in my
Monorail experience so please excuse it, but it has been working over a
year and with trunk upgrades.
[ViewComponentDetails("LoginInfoViewComponent")]
public class LoginInfoViewComponent : ViewComponent
{
public override void Render()
{
if (Session["displayName"] == null)
{
//AD code here
Session["displayName"] = userAttributes.DisplayName;
}
PropertyBag["loginuser"] = Session["displayName"].ToString();
base.Render();
}
}
brail view:
Logged In As: ${loginuser} <img src="/Content/images/unlock.gif"
width="16" height="18" hspace="3" alt="Log out" /> <a
href="/Login/Index.Castle?LogOut=true">Log Out</a>
layout (place where needed):
<% component LoginInfoViewComponent %>
