RE: [PHP-WIN] How can I retrieve a users Windows logon name?

Debra, Unfortunately $REMOTE_USER is not set by IIS (atleast not on mine) and to my knowledge IIS does not support .htaccess files. But thanks anyway ;-) Any other ideas out there ? /Christian -----Original Message----- From: samsom, debra [mailto:dsamsom@bristol.ca] Sent: 17. september 2001 16:19 To: 'Christian Sandfeld' Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] How can I retrieve a users Windows logon name? Have you looked at .htaccess and using $REMOTE_USER in your PHP code to get the userid. Under Apache it works great, I'm not sure about IIS. -----Original Message----- From: Christian Sandfeld [ mailto:csa@zen-sys.com <mailto:csa@zen-sys.com> ] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2001 7:01 AM To: 'Ertan Tike' Cc: 'php-windows@lists.php.net' Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] How can I retreive a users Windows logon name? Ertan, Thank you for your speedy reply. I had hoped for some sort of 'pure' PHP solution, but hey, this might work. I will definately give it a try :) Meanwhile, if there are others who have an idea how this could be accomplished through PHP, I would be happy to hear from you.

Hi group, Is there any way I can retreive a users Windows logon name? I'm running a system with IIS 4/PHP 4.0.6/MySQL 3.23.xx. Basicaly what I'm after is some simple way to verify what user is accessing our intranet, without having to prompt the user for his initials. I am aware that this does not provide for much security, but that's ok (I'm not after security, only after a simple user verification). I thank you in advance for your time ;-) /Christian ---------------------------------------------- Christian Sandfeld Zensys A/S ---------------------------------------------- -- PHP Windows Mailing List ( http://www.php.net/ <http://www.php.net/> < http://www.php.net/ <http://www.php.net/> > ) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-windows-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-windows-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
