Me Again! Get network user

[NickyJay]

Hi All,

I'm posting rather frequently of late! Does anyone know of a simple way to be able to retrieve the user logged on to a network (microsoft)? In Access in the past i have used environ() to do this - is there any sort of CF equivalent?

Using CFMX7, and Active Directory user accounts.

Basically i have a DB with a Temp table to allow any user on our network to edit a record. The update goes to the temp table and emails a member of a certain team to check the update (just incase) and apply it to the real table the temp is a copy of. I just want to be able to store teh name of the person that has made teh change on the temp table.

Thanks for reading!
Nicola

CGI.AUTH_USER

The resource has to be protected by the OS and you need authentication turned on for this variable to be populated. You may also have to strip out the domain info since it's usually populated with DOMAIN\USER.
