You need to be more specific about what you're asking for.

"capture a users windows login id" can mean any number of things. What are
you trying to do?

I have a page which needs the user to fill his/her info.
The application needs to get some infor about the user (to identify
him/her), which he wont be able to change it. This is to avoid trash
data..

All the user logs in the system using an id and password. I want to
display that user id in the asp.net application.

The application runs inside the firewall and is used internally in our
organization.

Thanks!

It sounds like this would be a perfect candidate for ASP.NET 2.0 Login
controls and Membership functionality. You just drag and drop the login
control onto the form, and, depending on the data source you need to
authenticate against, do a little configuration.

In inetmgr view properties for the webapp. In tab "document security" remove
the "allow anonymous access" checkmark.

In the App use:
User.Identity.Name

Check out this site --
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...SecNetHT02.asp

Request.ServerVariables["LOGON_USER"];
will give you the LAN ID of the user who is logged into this computer. With
this information you can use the above link and retrieve further info about
the user (first name, last name, etc).
