We are in the process of migrating our web servers to IIS 6.0 from II5 5.0 and having an Issue with ServerVariables.When I try to get Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_USER") I get domainname/user.
What has to be done to just get the user.I know we can do a substring but the code has to be changed in about 200 pages and testinng will be a nightmare.Any other way we can just get the user without domain.In my current code I just get user.
i've got an iis server on NT4 and i'm trying to use asp to retreive the REMOTE_USER. this however gives me an empty string. how can i get it?
View Replies View RelatedI'm writing a page and i need to store the username of the person submiting a form so that that person can later edit the information if need be. But right now the only variable giving me a value is REMOTE_ADDR. Which will work but if the ip changes ect it wont.
Right now REMOTE_USER, LOGON_USER, UNMAPPED_REMOTE_USER, and AUTH_USER all return a Null string. I dont have direct access to the server so any options i need set i need to make a request to the I.S. Department. What do i need to do so that the server retreives this information?
i use nt user authentication on our iis 5.0 webserver. user get a login popup for username/password when they connect to the website. i also use session handling which works fine. the session ends when the user uses my logoff process.
but unfortunately, the remote_user server variable is still filled with the username. so the user can just call the website again and he does not get the username/passwort pop up. is there a possibility to empty/reset/destroy the remote_user servervariable
(maybe on client side, cookie)?
