That's a great idea, these both worked:
CF: (I got an error on the script, so I just changed it a little:):
<cfobject type="COM" name="w" class="WScript.Network" action="CREATE">
<cfoutput>#w.ComputerName#<br>#w.UserDomain#</cfoutput>
ASP:
<%
set w = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
computerName = w.ComputerName
userDomain = w.UserDomain
set w = nothing
response.write(computerName & userDomain)
%>

Do you have the VBScript Docs or SQL BOL installed? If not, why not?

Cgi.remote_host can sometimes give you that info, but isn't always
available (requires reverse lookups to have been setup, which isn't that
common for workstations/isp customers). If you want the NetBIOS name or
NT domain, you're going to have to do more work - this is non-HTTP info.

Hi,
I'm using the below cgi variable to get the ipaddress of the server.
<cfset ipaddress = "#CGI.REMOTE_ADDR#">
How can I get the computer (server) name or domain?
