I am writing an ASP that writes info to a database. The application does not reqire the user to log in as it doesn't have any authentication process, but as part of the information I write to the database, I need to pass in the user's Windows XP username. I don't want to have to ask the user to enter their username, so is there a way of obtaing the user's XP logon username without them having to type it?
In reference to an e-commerce website, is it possible (using Active Server Pages) to obtain the IP address of a particular user? I would like to get an address that uniquely identifies the user. If so, how would that be done?
I'm trying to do a postcode lookup. I'd like to obtain the value of a text field in a form before submission than pass that value to another asp page (which does the processing then passes the values back) via a hyperlink. I don't want to submit the form as I have another button to do that later when the user has completed the form.
I assume I'd have to do this with a Javascript function but I have several problems, I don't seem to be able to get the value and I don't know how to put it into an asp variable to use in the hyperlink.
Is their a client side VBscript command that I can use to post the local IP address of the machine back to my web server.
I want to obtain the client's side IP address of their machine. However because my IIS stands behind a firewall and uses reverse hosting techniques, the http headers contains the firewall's IP instead of the client's.
I have a request from the boss to make a report that will require me to display how many hours something has been in a particular state. (As in status). Hard to explain. Anyway, I need to go to the table in the db, find all rows for a particular trouble ticket, find when they were put into one of our 7 statuses, when they were put into another status (this info is already in those rows), then determine how many hours they spent there in each status.
So a ticket report will say that ticket 1000 spent 4 hours in customer research, 5 hrs in our company coding. 3 in our company testing, 4 in customer testing, etc.
The thing is, It has to assume an 8-5 workday, and leave out any hours which don't fall in between 8 am to 5 pm, and also rule out any weekends.
I'm wondering how I go about obtaining the value of a radio button and a list box in a form for validation.
I have it right now as
optCust = Request.Form("customer") - Radio button lstCountry = Request.Form("country").Item
And when I place them in my validation that gets passed to the address bar they do not store with the value they are given. Am I pulling them from the form wrong or is their a special way that it should be passed to the address bar of my redirect error page?
I want to be able to log in a database any transactions my users perform. For example logging in, requesting a page, downloading a resource, logging out etc.
What is the most practical way to code this? I was thinking of trying to use an include file which would have a function to add a log in the database for each page on the site or when a particular action is performed.
I'm having a bit of trouble with an ASP form that I'm maintaining. Someone else wrote it and I'm new to CDO objects. I have a CDO.Message and a CDO.Configuration.
I set up the configuraton fields for the port and smtp server's ip address to be used. The configuration property of the message is set to be the new configuration object.
Then there's a ton of stuff appending bits and pieces to the text body.
Finally we have the message's Send method being called. That's where it breaks.
It seemed to just stop working one day. When I submit the form, the message returned is simply:
error '8004020f'
I know from the MSDN website that this error code means 'Failure in obtaining user token.' What I don't know is how to fix it!
all ive done is a very simple form to post comments onto a noticeboard......using asp and access for now, all i want to be able to do is when its submitted it also sends the Windows username of the person who has submitted it to the database automatically so i can then show it on the noticeboard.

I'm creating a set of new user pages for my site. At present I've got a newuser1.asp file which tests if a username exists. On failure (when the username exists) it goes an almost identical copy of the file and the user has to try out a new username and password.
This seems rather inelegant (having to upkeep two files) so I'd like to have just the one page with the failure redirecting back to itself but then displaying appropriate wording ('the username exists.so that I can try to work out an appropriate solution?BTW I'm using ASP VBscript.
i set up a login page and when the user logs in he/she is directed to the main site. What I wish to know is how can I show the user name that is logged in the main site:

It displays the following User name: Cable/rmirto7777. Now I would like to remove the Cable/ part and just keep rmirto7777 only. Keep in mind that Cable/ part doesn't change only what comes after it and everyone has a different User name. Therefore it changes constantly! I tried alot of ways by using the function but came unsuccessful. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can achieve this goal by getting what comes after Cable/ to display on my page.
I have to develop a web application for my company in which I need to have a facility for username and password for the employees to do certain tasks. How can this be implemented in ASP. I am thinking of having usernames and passwards (encrypted) in database and when a person tries to log in, the script will compare those stored in databse to the values entered by user. But after the user has logged in, how can I make sure that the user is always logged in as user move from one page to another.

we never guarded againsts spaces in a new site we built. And while checking, a couple of users registered with spaces between their usernames. e.g. afrika 1 instead of afrika_1. Could there be downside to this?
I have seen in many sites that when I enter my username/password, it displays a new page wherein it says "Verifying Username/Password. Please wait..."
I wonder what does it do behind the scene? Does it really take 5-6 seconds to verify a username/password? if yes, what code runs behind it? If no, then why they have to display that page?
I think the authentication process normally does not take more than 1 second.
I want to my web page get username from windows and use this username for limitation access of user to pages, my authentication is windows I thinks because user input username for login to windows, and auth_user has value of username I think maybe it doesn't need to get username again, but you say it's normal.
