We used WSH (Windows Scripting Host) to get that information (only on intranet
pages only - security rule and also if the request is from an internal page vs
an external page - the external pages script is not allowed to run (so I have
been told)). Here is a sample of what we used - might make into a dll or look
to see if we can can use some form of Java to retrieve this info now with MX
since we are trying to stop using Active X.
<script language="_javascript_">
var WshNetwork = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network");
var oDrives = WshNetwork.EnumNetworkDrives();
var oPrinters = WshNetwork.EnumPrinterConnections();
alert("Domain = " + WshNetwork.UserDomain);
alert("Computer Name = " + WshNetwork.ComputerName);
alert("User Name = " + WshNetwork.UserName);
alert("Network drive mappings:");
for(i=0; i<oDrives.Count(); i+=2){
alert("Drive " + oDrives.Item(i) + " = " + oDrives.Item(i+1));
}
alert();
alert("Network printer mappings:");
for(i=0; i<oPrinters.Count(); i+=2){
alert("Port " + oPrinters.Item(i) + " = " + oPrinters.Item(i+1));
}
</script>

Hi,
We created a vb (dll) to get that information and used _javascript_ to
retrieve that information. WSH might work also, but we turned that off since
it can be used by hackers.
TIA,

What about using the IP address of the workstation and then doing a DNS
lookup for it's information, or a WINS lookup if in a private Windows
network.
