 to make it simple:
 serwer tells the browser: you need to authenticate using NTLM , valid
 user is required. then browser  sends the server id of a user.
 something like:
 S-1-5-21-3127170830-3942366122-3349335812-41005
 now it is web serwers role to do something with it.
 in most corporate enviroments - use ldap call to get real name

 the one who owns the task running web browser. the one that
 started web browser, of course
