Grabbing Current Username Via ADSI
My users logon to the Patriot domain, my intranet is on sdsddata01 server. I have a form that people have to click on a dropdown list to pick their name from the list when submitting a form. Is there any way to grab their username via ADSI so I can query it against a database that will get submitted against a form.
I have seen a few arcticles regarding this but I couldn't make sense of them. They are already authenticating when they login, so I don't want them to have to do it again once they hit the intranet. Is this possible using ADSI? Will I have to make some permission changes in IIS as well?

Anyone know how it is possible for windows to get the name of the user
logged in?
I know if you do :
Request.Servervariables ("AUTH_USER")
it displays the username of the person logged in, but is there a way
to get the "Full name" of that user in the active directory?
Ie, if they log in with the username jsmith, I from that I know there
full name is John Smith.

I have a noticeboard that the user inputs items into. One of those is the date of an event. Once that event has passed I want it to disappear from the page.
So I need to do a comparison with current date to the date in the "datestarted" field. My table is called "notices." Using Access and ASP VBscript.

I am trying to retrieve data from a dropdown listbox in asp using:
<%Response.Write + Request.Form("cboBox")%>
The problem is that I only retrieve the first value of the option. For
example, if my first option was <option value=this that>, I only can
retrieve "this". It won't get the second word.

Is it possible with classic ASP to have a list of image files in a database, automatically transfer them onto our server from another server and resize their dimensions? We have many images of products that we have to screen grab at the moment from our suppliers' websites and it would be useful to automate this.I think there are tools for ASP.NET to do this but can't find anything to do it with ASP.

how or has the resource for graabing a users email address without them knowing? Before I hear all the 'Its not ethical' blurb - I know and my use is legitimate. I am build an e-commerce store and as well as grabbing the users IP at point of sale, i think it would be invaluable to grab a users email address (on top of their registration supplied address - but not always) so that in cases of attempted fraud there is an additional avenue by which we can investigate. The intention is by no means for spam (which I loathe) Anyone know how to do this?

I am testing NT Authentication and have found that the following works
Response.Write Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
Response.Write Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_USER")
However this gets me "my_domainusername" on both cases. How do you get the users full name and not just the username.

Intranet application.
strLogon= Replace(Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER"),"DOMAIN","")
The above line is used by several pages on my browser-based app to obtain the Windows login name for the user. Of course, I replaced our domain name with the generic word "DOMAIN" here, but the point is that I am trying to get that name and store it into a variable.
It works fine in Production, but not on my dev box, which is on the network and is very similar to the Production server (Same OS, for example).
On my dev box, it doesn't return anything, but in Production, it will return jsmith, mjones,etc.

I have found some code that authenticates users agains a domain using ADSI.
I then redirect to another page and pass the username they have entered as a
string. However, it would be nice to also get their full name from Active
Directory once authenticated. Can anyone suggest how I may modify this code
to achieve this? I would also like to pass their full name to the next page
as a string. The code I found: Code:

I have this site to where people can get access to via a username and passwrod. THere is also a download section in here, but i want to limit the amount of downloads, but i also am covering up where the download is located. So when someone hits download on the page, they get sent to an asp page. This asp page has a response.redirect to download the file.
I have stored the peoples username and password in a session. I can "response.write" the infromatino that is in the session, yet i can not assign that information to a variable. Code:

I have several checkboxes named in the following format:
chktable_city~20
chktable_state~WI
chktable_zipcode~12312
I need to be able to pull the table names and values from each checkbox name (for example, I would need to pull the "table_city" and "20" from the checkbox above).
In short, how do I pull out the table_city and 20 from the first example. Since the table names and values vary in size, I can't just do a regular mid, left, right function.

I have seen people's ASP scripts which call an external .txt file and compare it to a form's returned information (i.e. a password and login system), and--with my being new to ASP--I couldn't figure out how. What I want to do is write a form's results to a .txt document and retrieve those results via JavaScript, HTML, ASP, PHP, etc.

I was playing around in FrontPage and I noticed that you could insert an ActiveX control for a calendar. I would like to be able to use this to integrate with a database - for example, I would like to be able to click on a day of the month and have the page display all data associated with that date (sort of a select * from database where date = "date_clicked_on")

I need to download content on a webpage once a day and then parse the data. I know how to parse, so once I get the page, I'm ready to go. Is it possible to use something like the filesystemobject to read a webpage instead of filename? If yes, great! How? If no, what can I use to automatically download a webpage that I can then in turn parse?

I am working on automating a workflow process for my company. Part of the process requires the user to send a snapshot of their benefits from a secure web site to their manager. I am trying to extract the web page using Microsoft.XMLHTTP but am having problems due to user validation which is required to access the benefits web page. There are 2 layers.
First, user is required to login with user name and password, then user is redirected to another page that asks for PIN. Only if both authentications pass, the user is considered validated and is redirected to the benefits page. I am not able to through any of the validation pages. What can I do?

As a trainer in a company, I launched a webform asking people to log
in before they can access the needed training. Nothing fancy and just
there for monitoring who comes in and when. Problem is that some
"nice-guys" enter who knows what - because that's fun. Can I
counteract this by having the ASP form sending me also the IP address
from the PC ? And where do I have to add these lines ? Code:

I'm doing a website in PHP/MySQL but its an IIS server - THUS no sendmail. I've used CDONTS to send email in ASP before but this time its a little different
I have a MySQL table called 'emails' in a database called 'db'. The table has Key IDs from 1 to about 50 that correspond with different email addresses. I want to use CDONTS to Grab the email addresses from the MySQL database one by one and in 15 second intervals send out the same email to each address.
I know this sounds a bit 'spammy', but it's a band website with a mailing list. Only about 50 or so entries. I'm trying to set up a mailing list manager and the only missing piece is this damn emailing script.

I know this isn't the best group to ask this in - but I also know a lot of
you have experience with this kind of stuff
I'm going to be creating a site where customers will be able to set up their
own sub-site (ie. www.mysite.com/theirsubsite). I'll need to be able to
create virtual directories on-the-fly, so I plan on using ADSI to accomplish
this. My question is - what are my options when it comes to permissions?
Will I need to give the IUSR account admin permissions to create these
directories, or is there some way to impersonate an admin account on the
script creating the directories? Has anyone dealt with this before?

Has anyone ever experienced any problems authenticating with an ADSI application where after so long it stops responding. I can not track down what is causing the problem. I have a login page that uses the following code. This is running on a windows 2003 domain controller currently. If I put it on a windows 2000 member server I get this error way more often.
Dim oADsObject
Set oADsObject = GetObject(strADsPath)
Dim strADsNamespace
Dim oADsNamespace
strADsNamespace = left(strADsPath, instr(strADsPath, ":"))
set oADsNamespace = GetObject(strADsNamespace)
Set oADsObject = oADsNamespace.OpenDSObject(strADsPath, strUserName, strPassword, 1)
It authenticates fine, but after so long the login page stops working. If I restart the application pool the page starts to work again. I have a volume of about 500-700 users authenticated at any given time. Should I be authenticating a different way?

how (or if it's even possible) to cache the results of an ADSI call in asp for a longer period of time. Basically what I am doing is I have a website that loads the 'full
name' of the user that logs into it. Once the user full nam ehas been retreived (using adsi) the user can reload the page and it appears to just check a cached version of the request (since the page loads very fast).
If however the user waits a bit longer (maybe 5 min) and reloads the page it will take upto 4 secs to load the page (since the adsi call is being resubmitted). Is there anyway to increase the length of time that adsi info is cached?

I need to evaluate a field's maximum value and then do an if
conditional:
if rs("havesubP") = true and rs("displaygroup") < MAX then ....
whereas MAX represents the biggest value in the records for the
displaygroup field (an integer datatype). I get an "Either BOF or EOF
is True, or the current record has been deleted.." error if i put any
type of comparison number (of course MAX is not a vbscript keyword)
that is larger than my largest displaygroup value in the dbase , as I
will loop thru all the records once this condition is met.

First the brief: I'm currently developing an intranet at work. We have approximately 3000 users and they keep forgetting their passwords. We have 3 Tech-Support guys who keep having to reset them. The idea was to build a function in to the intranet to allow department heads to be able to reset other users passwords via asp.
All well and good. After a fair bit of reading, I've acquainted myself with the basics of talking to Active Directory and retrieving various objects, properties and values.
My problem is that when I try to update any of the objects (i'm focusing on the .description property at the moment 'cos when I break it - that's not gonna matter so much) But when I try and SetInfo, I get a General Access Error. My ServerVariables("LOGON_NAME") is empty. I was wondering if there was a way to force an asp page to run as the server administrator 'cos obviously when department heads login, we don't want all of them to be AD Admins. All they should be able to do is run my script to reset a password.
I'm not actually the server admin, and don't really know the specifics of IIS, but can I just tell it to run specific scripts as domainadmin? Or can I pass something in the asp headers to force it to authenticate as admin?

In the intranet system I'm building I need to draw information about Staff and integrate it into Department pages, and make it accessible via querystrings (so users can search for names). I've asked my IT department how to do this and they basically said "ask the internet"
So, if I want to access such information, where do I start? I cant find any tutorials that answer my questions, and feel a bit out of my depth regarding what I'm even meant to be asking. So basically... help! What's should be my plan of action!
I need to :
A) draw names, phone numbers, email addresses to show on relevant department pages.
B) Make a facility to search staff names to bring up similar information.

I have a script that I have set up to display users and their account status in an asp page, using adsi, then the web viewer can enable and disable accounts using this page. The problem I have is the anonymous user that IIS logs in with does not have the privileges to change accounts etc for active directory.
So, I made my server into an SSL server and made it ask for credentials using basic authentication. All works well for administrator as when the admin username and password are used, the script then runs with admin rights.
(as this is only a test server I can mess with all security etc before wrecking the real server!!) I delegated control to an OU that I wish to control with ASP and went and logged in as one of the users that was delegated control, but that says the script does not have the rights.
So, in effect, the script will not work unless I put in the admin username and passwords. I even delegated control to one user rather than a group but that still don't work. Any ideas please? Is it IIS, AD or ASP that is at fault?
