Most of this should be accessible via environment variables, such as the
$_SERVER array. Try:

$_SERVER['REMOTE_HOST']

You don't need some complicated analytics package to grab this basic
information. Look here:

http://www.php.net/reserved.variables

I'm curious as to your request about the windows username. Are you trying to do
this on an intranet and verifying against an LDAP server? If so, there is a way
to do this. Look into Mod_LDAP. I think that allows you to access the nt
username via $_SERVER['AUTHENTICATE_SAMACCOUNTNAME']. I've done it before,
though I'm fuzzy on the details. It was a couple of years ago.
