I have a Windows Domain control (NT 4) and clients that can either be
Windows or Linux. But is that really relevant? All I need to know is
whether PHP can pick up the local "user" name from the computer login?
For example my name is Alan Searle and my user login is "asearle". All
I would need is a PHP function to return this string. But from other
replies that I've had, it looks like this isn't possible.
Regards,
Alan.
