Re: Capturing Windows Login Name

Hello,

I know it is not possible to get Windows login name using PHP because
it is a server-side script, but I dunno whether anyone has tried using

This is not accurate, the Windows logon name is passed to servers by
several browsers (not just IE) when servers ask for Windows NTLM
authentication.

You just need to configure your Web server to require Windows
authentication, and you get the current logged user logon name using
GetEnv('LOGON_USER'); .

Forget Javascript, it would never work.
