Smart Login.jsp?

[Kaiser Norm E CIV USAF 96 CG/SCWOE]

** Hi everyone:   Has anyone on the list successfully modified a login.jsp file such that it discovers the user's username automatically through the web server?   It seems to me that if you're running IIS and you force the user to authenticate himself to the IIS server, his username should be known by the operating system of the server.  One could then, theoretically, query the OS from the login.jsp for the username of the user.  It could use that value to silently populate the username field of the login.jsp and then populate a pre-canned password and grant access to the midtier app.   Has anyone done anything like this?   Thanks, Norm __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___
