I've just taken over maintaining a system from a colleague who has
left. I find the following line in her code:
Dim params(2) As SqlClient.SqlPa rameter
params(0) = New SqlClient.SqlPa rameter("@UserN ame", pvstrUsername)
params(1) = New SqlClient.SqlPa rameter("@Passw ord", pvstrPassword)
params(2) = New SqlClient.SqlPa rameter("@Machi neName",
Environment.Mac hineName())
When I run the code in the debugger, I find that the value of
Environment.Mac hineName is the same as the name of my PC. But I'm
running this on my localhost IIS.
So, my question is: if I run this in my browser but with the
application on a different web server, what will the value of
Environment.Mac hineName?
Do I make myself clear? Am I as dumb as a bag of spanners?

Edward,
It's a server-side code. It will produce the server's name.

Environment.Mac hineName does not get the name of the web server you are
runnnig on but the name of the computer you are in. You could even use it in
Windows Forms. So no matter what it will give you the name of the PC.

I have to disagree here. Environment.Mac hineName gets the name of the
machine in whose Environment the application is running. In a web
application, this would be the name of the server on which the ASP.Net
process is running. "The computer you are in" is a non-sequitor. It is not
possible for a person to be "in" a computer. If you meant by that, the
computer that the user is using, in a web application running server-side
code, that statement would be false.

Yes you are right Kevin, Environment.Mac hineName is going to get the name of
the computer your application is running on. Well in this case Edward is
developing his application so in this situation he will get the name of the
computer he is developing the application in. If one wants to get
information of the client computer, one would have to use the Request
