how to display the username in the welcome page

[Menara]

hi all
can someone show me how to display the username in the welcome page, i found this in many portals they write "welcome: 'the person who is authentified'".
how can i have the names from the NT counts?

Hi,
I found a web part that you can include on the home page of SPS, I've made a couple of changes to it, so it will only show the users name and increased the font a little.

Below is the exported web part code, just copy and paste into a new text file and save it as a .dwp and then import it into your portal.


<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?>
<WebPart xmlns=&quot;urn:schemas-microsoft-com:webpart:&quot;>
<Title>User Details</Title>
<Description>Displays Users Name and IP Address using in built in Server Vars</Description>
<Content>'Generic Web Part Function. REQUIRED.
Function GetContent(nod)

' Displays user details and IP address
' pinched from MS Extranet sample
Dim UserName ' var for Username
Dim IPAddress ' var for remote_address
Dim strHTMLRet ' Output string
Dim BrowserVersion
Dim UserNameRep

Dim FullName

On Error Resume Next

'get username - note this bit of code required because if anonymous then blank string
UserName = request.servervariables(&quot;Logon_User&quot
if Len(UserName) = 0 then
UserName = &quot;Anonymous&quot;
end if

UsernameRep=Replace(ucase(UserName) , &quot;\&quot;, &quot;/&quot
set adsUser = getObject(&quot;WinNT://&quot; & UserNameRep)
FullName = adsUser.FullName


' get ip
IPAddress = request.servervariables(&quot;REMOTE_ADDR&quot
' get browser
BrowserVersion = request.servervariables(&quot;HTTP_USER_AGENT&quot

' Build up output string
strHTMLret = &quot;<DIV style=&quot;&quot;font-size: 150%&quot;&quot;>&quot;
strHTMLRet =strHTMLret & &quot;Welcome: &quot; & FullName &&quot;</div>&quot;
'Return string to Dashboard
GetContent = strHtmlRet

End Function</Content>

Hi,

Don't know whats going on there, send me you e-mail address and I'll send you a straight exported webpart which works fine on my site.
