Answer 1

I've only had intimate experience with this under 1.1, so things might hav changed in the 2.0 days but... We've got an app that gets deployed in intranet scenarios, and we strike the same thing. We run with identity impersonate turned on, forms mode authentication, anonymous access turned off. The easiest way to control this (that I've found) is to put the credentials of the user that has access in the web.config. They go on the node where you turn identity impersonate on. If it's super scret info I wouldn't do it this way though! We're only accessing shared graphics in a print environment, so most sites are happy to setup a limited account for us to put in the web.confit. LogonUser does indeed need elevated privelidges. Msdn has some good articles on how to impersonate a specific user in code. I'd fish out some links but this phone doesn't do copy paste.
