In your Connector entries in Tomcat's server.xml file (in the conf directory)
add enableLookups="true"
<Connector port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" URIEncoding="UTF-8"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true"
compression="on" compressionMinSize="2048"
noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla, traviata"
compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml" />
By default Tomcat does not turn on machine name resolution. Personally I added
the enableLookups="true" to all of the Connector entries in the file. After
updating the config file stop and restart Tomcat. Your Java function should
then work.
The other Java function I use is to get the IP (put it in the same .jsp file).
function env_get_ip_info()
{
var return_value = "<%= request.getRemoteAddr() %>";
return (return_value)
}

Hi,
I am stuck at this requirement and was wondering if this is feasible to
implement:
1) When an Incident is resolved, an email goes to the customer to submit a
survey, with a survey link.
2) The link opens the survey form in the brower without the user authenticating
in the midtier. A surver-user with a restricted read license is created for
this purpose which allows multiple people from multiple locations to submit the
survey.
3) There is a submit button on this survey form.
4) When the user clicks on submit button, it is required that, his Windows User
ID be captured in one of the fields.

Solutions implemented that did not work:
1)
Create a little Java function in a .jsp file and put it in your "shared"
folder on your Midtier:
Name the file something like /arsys/shared/get_remote_user.jsp.
get_remote_user.jsp contains:
function env_ip_var()
{
var return_value = "<%=request.getRemoteUser()%>";
return (return_value)
}
In the Web Header content of the form you want to capture this on,
add...
<SCRIPT src="/arsys/shared/get_remote_user.jsp"
language="JavaScript"></SCRIPT>
To set a field with the data from the JavaScript functions do the
following in an active link...
Run Process Command Line:
javascript:window.F(XXXXXXXX).DoSet(env_hostname());
Be sure to change XXXXXXXX with the field ID of the field you want to
set.
This did not work, function env_ip_var returns null.
____________________________________________
Solution 2:
A set fields actions in an active link:
$PROCESS$ CMD /C "set username"
This worked only in user tool. However this functionality is required for web.
