asp_web_howto thread: Logon username


Message #1 by "Lie Kai-Inge" <kai.lie@v...> on Mon, 16 Sep 2002 09:47:09 +0200
In what way can I read/retrieve the network logon username of the current
user in the Visual basic script code on an asp-page. It is an asp-page on
our intranet. 

Is there a property of the session object that contains this info?
or, could I use a function that makes api-call to the server?

Thanks 
Kai

Its Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER").  But it will be empty if you 
allow anonymous browsing.  Either:
1. change your site configuration to only allow NT Integrated (Challenge-
Response) access
2.put some code like this at the *top* of each page that requires the user 
details:
If Len(Trim(Request.ServerVariables ("LOGON_USER"))) = 0 Then
	Response.Status = "401 Unauthorized"
	Response.AddHeader "WWW-Authenticate", "NTLM"
	Response.End
End If
