NT-LOGON with ASP
I am working on an INTRANET site.
The Environment we have is:
NT 4.0
IIS 5.0
SQL 7.0
I have a table "USERS" in the database with field "LoginName" which is same as the User-Logins on the Network.
I want to capture the User-Logon of the User that he is provided on the Network, when he visits this INTRANET site. BECASUE then i will compare that to the field in the table I have "USERS". And based upon -
*If his LOGON matches the "LoginName" in the table, he will get to see different content based upon the rules.
HOW WOULD I DO THAT ?
IN other words when I log on my network my Username is "WEBUSER". I have this record in the database for this INTRANET Site. Once I am authenticated thru NT on my machine I can log on to this site. I need a script /way/method to capture this "WEBUSER" Logon-Name in my ASP page to program further.
Please Help

Hi prokni
how can i find the nt loginname description
how can i find the nt loginname description
I am not sure,
But I think it is better to go with ADSI for that.
Set myObj = GetObject("WinNT://" & Domain)
myobj.Filter = Array("user")
For Each user In myobj
response.write "<br><b>User</b>:" & user.Name
response.write ", <b>Parent is</b> : " & user.Parent
response.write ", <b>AccountDisabled is</b> : " & user.AccountDisabled
Next
I am not sure if you can get user description with WinNT provider, you definitly can do it with LDAP provider on active directory.

BINGO prokni... Its working !!
I was unaware of the fact that I had the AnonymousLogin Enabled along with NT enable on my machine. I set the Anonymous to false and now I am able to trap the login name.
I guess thats a good sign.
One more question if you want to answer.
How long do you think the User will be recognized by the IIS thru this NT Authentication as i am Supposed to TURN OFF the Session too. Or does it stay untill the Browser is open.
I am going to accept ur answer anyways

Actually I would keep the session timeout the same, What i am doing in my case, I check the session in the beginning of each page and if my session is empty then I forward them to the same page that they loged in, still it gets the Request.ServerVariables("L
This one has nothing to do with session time out and still it gets the same login name information and starts all over again but it depends totally to your situation.
good luck
