User Logon Info - VERY URGENT! 1

[samosa]

Dear gurus!
When an employee logs on to our intranet site, I need to capture his/her username.
Can you please tell me how to do this?
A script would be great.
This is very urgent, please help!!!

What are you using to allow them to logon? ASP page, Default NT logon, Client side script...?
Do you want this stored in a database, text file, fortune cookie...?

The more specific the better we can anser

Tarwn, thanks for your response.
The employees will be logging in with their system Ids (windows xp).
I just need to find a way to capture their username after they login.
I probably will prefer to store it in a textfile.
thx,

If you want there Windows login name use this:

UserName= (Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER&quot

This will give you DomainName/LoginName

If you want there actual name you'll need to register the active directory services interface dll on your web server. You can download it from Microsoft if it isn't already registered.

Then you can get there name using this:

UserName= Replace(Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER&quot,"\","/&quot
set User = GetObject("WinNT://" & UserName)
strmyfullName = User.FullName

strmyfullName will now contain (example) "Smith, John"

onpnt, I am sorry if I sounded upset.
I was NOT upset when I sent the thread.
I can't be upset when I am asking folks like you to help me.
Further, I have been getting pretty fast and accurate responses from you guys so I was not upset at all.
I wasn't even frustrated.
