This is all for internal use so, on intranet. Is there away around the security if for internal use? I can get the IP Address. Would I have to pass the IP address to look up the name using DNS?

Yes, you just need to run a reverse DNS lookup using the IP Address. &nbsp;This of course is dependent on your local DNS server being properly maintained with reverse entries.<br />
<br />
You should find plenty of examples if you search for &quot;Reverse DNS .net&quot;, but let me know if you can't figure it out.

How to get hold of the client computername with Javascript and how to integrate this into ASP.NET

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

JavaScript

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

ASP.NET

Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) is a group of interrelated Web development techniques used on the client-side to create asynchronous Web applications. With AJAX, web applications can send data to and retrieve from a server asynchronously (in the background) without interfering with the display and behavior of the existing page. HTML and CSS can be used in combination to mark up and style information. The Document Object Model (DOM) is accessed with JavaScript to dynamically display and allow interaction with the information presented.
