Username in smartdevice application

We have application developed in .net platform (vb.net) running on a Symbol
MC9000G handhelds. These handhelds authenticate to our 2000 domain using
Kerberos.

There is a mid-tier code running as web services to connect to the oracle
back-end. I would like to get the username (logged into domain) in the code
running in the handheld - the smartdevice platform does not support
Environment.Username. How can i get this? This will help us identify the user
rights and will ensure appropriate security levels.

Hi,

Sorry for the late response, since there are some tool issues here. Could
you let me know how you logged on to the domain? Also, What OS are you
using?

Logging to the domain using Kerberos authentication. The domain OS is WIN2K
and the client is Pocket PC.

Hi,

We cannot get the credential through .NET compact framework directly. You
can try to use a windows CE api CeCredRead to get the credential of the
current user, whick involves a p/invoke.
