I need to know if its possible to create an ASP page that when requested
will display the network id of the requester.
Most people have told me to query the
request.servervariables("LOGON_USER").
But this will get me the login of the server and not the client. In our
situation we do not want to have our users login twice (once to their
machine
(the client) and then again to the server (the one that serves the asp
page).
I need to know the client logon name.
If they don't log into the domain the web server is in, you won't get
the correct account with this. If they log into the client, ASP can't
do much for you, since ASP is server side and the client has the
information. You'd need to run a client-side script to get the info.

Hi I have succesfully used this to return the users login detail, but I now
have a new problem I have assigned the login to a Session Variable, however
when I come to use the string stored in the variable it excludes the \ which
seperates the domain from the user name, which really is a pain. Anybody
know why this is happening and how I can overcome it ?
Thanks
