The following uses ADSI:
Dim SystemInfo As Object
SystemInfo = CreateObject("A DSystemInfo")
Console.WriteLi ne(SystemInfo.D omainShortName)

You can use WMI as well...
Dim computer as New WMISample.ROOT. CIMV2.ComputerS ystem
computer.path =
System.Manageme nt.ManagementPa th("MyComp\root \CIMV2:Win32_Co mputerSystem.Na m
e=""MyComp""" )
Messagebox.Show (computer.Domai n) //Shows Domain name or Workgroup name)

The problem is that I cannot use these 2 examples on a
Windows98/WindowsME machine.
Is there any other way I can get the Workgroup/Domain name
Thank You

I can't seem to get the WMI to work in VD.NET, what am i supposed to
include in the references to access the WMI.

How about the following:
Environment.Use rDomainName()

Paul,
Sometimes I am blinded by the simplicity of things... I have to agree that
using the Environment class is a lot easier than dealing with WMI.
Thanks,

Imports System.Manageme nt - add a reference to this too.

The problem with this function is that it returns the domain name that
the user logged onto.
Scenario
Computer is registered in DomainA
User is registered in DomainB
I want the DomainA name but I get DomainB as the domain name when I use
System.Environm ent.UserDomainN ame.
It is important that I get DomainA

Did that but I cannot seem to access the following:
Dim computer as New WMISample.ROOT. CIMV2.ComputerS ystem
The MSDN is vague on how to access this as I cannot seem to find
anything relating to it.

Suppose I register a domain name, MyDomain.com, through register.com (or any
other of the many domain name registrars).
I own the domain name. The domain name goes into the global DNS database.
As the facilitator in this process, exactly what does the registrar *own*
with respect to my specific domain name and/or the registration process?
Briefly, what role does InterNIC play in all of this?

On my development machine, it works -- SystemInformation.UserDomainName and
System.Environment.UserDomainName both returns the domain name. But, on my
test machine, these methods are returning the computer name.
Both systems are running Framework 1.1 w/SP 1 installed. The code was
compiled using VS 2003 (VB.NET).
Is the problem that the test machine belongs to a workgroup, and not a
domain? If so, how to determine the workgroup name?

This information is essential for our system implementation.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
