Grabbing NT User Name 1

[Gatorajc]

I have a slight problem and not sure if is the code or the settings in IIS. I want to grab the NT User Name but it keeps coming back blank.

logon = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER&quot
Response.write logon.

I am using IIS 4.

I took off the Anonymous Access and tried using Basic Authentication that prompted for a log in but did not grab the User Name. (Now Prompting for a login is not what is requested so that will not work for this project.)

I also tried Windows NT Challenge/Response with no result at all.

Together also gets no result.

On the Web Server, I also tried to log in locally and on the domain, didn't think it would matter but I am trying anything.

I have not changed anything on the browser thinking that would have nothing to do with it. So it does have something to do with it please advise.

Thank you in advance.

I would lose my head if it wasn't attached.

Try this,

logon = Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_USER&quot
Response.Write logon.

I guess this will only work with Basic Authentication and
Windows NT Challenge/Response .

I have used this in the past and it worked well.

Good Luck

for anyone else hitting this thread.. this is what I use on our intranet, where IIS has already forced them to authenticate using their NT password, my ASP pages can "sniff them out" using the follwing line of code


thelogin = Request.ServerVariables ("REMOTE_USER&quot
