I'm wondering if there is a way in ColdFusion 4.5 (or CFMX7) to determine if the user has been authenticated by IIS or not, and if so, what the username is that they are logged in with?
-Justin Scott Nothing to do with ColdFusion, but ColdFusion does make it very easy to get. For this to work, one has to set the security of the resource (website, directory, file) in IIS to use "Windows Integrated Authentication" and equally importantly to NOT use "anonymous." Then when that resource is accessed the cgi.Auth_User will be populated with the username of the person logged onto the client. This, of course, assumes a Windows Server, a Windows Client and a Microsoft based browser if one does not want any extra login dialog boxes. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA --------- | 1 | | --------- Binary Soduko | | | --------- "C code.
