Cant get HttpContext.Current.User.Identity to return values

Question

This project authenticates with System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity

        IIdentity WinId = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity;//returns no data
        WindowsIdentity wi = (WindowsIdentity)WinId;

I have disabled anonymous in my Web.config

  <authorization>
    <deny users="?" />
  </authorization>

The wierd part is I have another project that uses the same code and has has the same .config but works,

Did you install the Windows authentication role service on IIS? http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.webserver/security/authentication/windowsauthentication/providers — Andreas, May 09 '14 at 11:33
Have you run your application on same domain or different domains? — , May 09 '14 at 11:53

Yes I have, I cant use **System.Environment.UserName** since this is an intranet application – Jack May 09 '14 at 13:23
