If you want to return the username you will need to turn off Anonymous access. The prompt by the web page for a username is most likely a trust issue. Have you Active Directory group add this site, and any aliases, to the intranet zones site.

However... Once SSL is enabled I had to enable Anonymous Access (along with the previously enabled Integrated Windows Authentication). When Anonymous Access was disabled and with SSL enabled any access to the web server (Remedy or even static html pages) would prompt the user to enter their Windows network user name and password. When Anonymous Access is enabled the Remedy web applications run fine, except that the function request.GetRemoteUser() now only returns Null. Here are the functions that used to return the user name and domain name of the user. *From the thread "Mid-Tier 6.3 - Get User Name - Bug?" from Apr 05. function env_RemoteUser_Login() { var return_value = "<%=request.getRemoteUser().replace('\\', ' ')%>"; var pos = return_value.indexOf(' '); if (pos > 0) return (return_value.substring(pos+1, 99)); return (return_value); } function env_RemoteUser_Domain() { var return_value = "<%=request.getRemoteUser().replace('\\', ' ')%>"; var pos = return_value.indexOf(' '); if (pos < 0) return (''); return (return_value.substring(0, pos)); } Has anyone been able to get request.getRemoteUser() to return the domain\username when Anonymous Access is enabled? I did read the "JSP, Javascript, GetRemoteUser, and Mid-tier 6.3" thread from Dec 05. Thanks.
