get windows client login

I have to create an intranet website by php, sql server and IIS.
One requirement is to get the user name from the windows client login.
I'd like to know if it is possible, and if yes how?

I think it should be possible by asp, but in php??

No idea, and if it can be done it's probably a very bad idea.

You can (and I have done this) authenticate a user against Active Directory
using the LDAP protocol. There is even a class to help you do this.

In IIS, turn off anonymous access, turn on "integrated Windows
authentication" , and use phpinfo() to find where it puts the username,
somewhere in $_SERVER. Far from ideal in various circumstances, but might be a
start for you.

You just have to make your Web server require NTLM authentication for
the pages that are served by PHP and you can get the authenticated user
calling GetEnv("LOGON_U SER"); .
