Getting User Name (client - advapi32.dll) from Web Browser

Originally posted by : Vijay (vgupta@dps.state.oh.us)I need to know the user connecting to Intranet (residing in advapi32.dll GetUserNameA function) to set up the security for the web app. Seems like only thing I am able to get is the client IP address (stored in server variable). I am using ASP to build this intranet web app. I would like to know if anyone has done this before, or know how to extract this information.Thanks in advance,Vijay
